Wrapping bicycle handlebar tape

1. Oh, the "8 shape"... that's how I've been doing it since I was a child in the early '80s.
2. One of the better presentations on this topic that I found. It really seems like a very basic task, but for the first-timer or rare-timer, there are a number of nuances and techniques to getting this right. This video was clear and helpful. Thanks.
3. I know it is a matter of choice but i think using a clamp strip instead of the figure 8 leaves less tape bulk around the levers. Good explaination of which direction to wrap the bars by using the hands as they grip the bars. The hands twist to the outside so you wrap that direction so you don't tend to unravel the tape as your hands grip the bars. You can tell that you have done this a lot as you were very fast in doing the wrap job, good vid.
4. Awesome! Easy install with this video :)
5. Thank you for making this video. Definitely going to give it a go with my bike! 😊 cheers
6. Lots of vids on this topic and this one is the BEST. Simple, to the point and shows the important details.
7. I love the figure-8 thing, it looks much better on my old bike (which doesnt have the rubber shoulder on the brakes)
8. thank you for that figure 8! always wondered
9. Good video. Thanks.
10. Thanks!
11. thank you very helpful
12. I like starting at the top and going down.  When I get to the end, I wrap that with electrical and then tuck the last inch of tape into the bar & insert the plug.
13. Good video, and good choice of bicycle!
14. does it really matter if u do left then right? i did mine today and its all to the right spun????
15. Aan het einde het stuurloos schuin afknippen en de tape niet op het stuur plakken.
    Slordige werkwijze.
16. just curious why not start from the top ???
17. Very helpful video, thanks.
18. Great viddy... I'm taking a shot at it this weekend..  
    Sweet ride by the way..   Izoard XP ?
19. Good job--very clear about the opposite directions. You got done in 4 minutes, it takes other videos to say it in 11-13, lol. Nice Figure 8 trick, too!
20. @  2:02  I noticed you already had the ear plug in.
