Reflective Handlebar Tape CX-85 – 2150mm x 30mm x 2.8mm for Safer Day and Night Cycling
The CX-85 reflective handlebar tape is designed to improve your visibility on the road without compromising comfort or style. Its reflective surface shifts between rainbow colours depending on the light, giving you a practical safety boost that works both day and night. Made from a layered construction of PU, EVA, and MicroTex, this tape offers a comfortable grip and a secure wrap that stays in place on standard handlebars. Whether you are commuting, touring, or riding for leisure, this tape adds a practical, search-friendly upgrade to your bike.
Features and Construction
This handlebar tape combines specific materials and measurements to deliver a reliable wrapping solution for most road and hybrid bikes. The reflective finish is a standout feature that enhances your presence without requiring batteries or electronics.
Material and Build
The tape uses three layers: a PU outer surface for grip and weather resistance, an EVA mid-layer for cushioning, and a MicroTex base for comfortable hand contact. Total thickness is 2.8mm, which provides enough padding for longer rides while keeping the wrap tidy.
Size and Practical Fit
Each roll measures 2150mm in length and 30mm in width, making it suitable for standard drop bars or flat bars with careful wrapping. The included insulating tape and bar ends plugs help secure the finish neatly.
Uses and Placement
This tape is suitable for a wide range of cycling scenarios where visibility and hand comfort are both important. It works on bicycles used for commuting, touring, or recreational riding.
Event or Professional Use
For sportive riders or club cyclists, the reflective rainbow effect adds a practical safety element during early morning or late evening rides when natural light is low. The tape’s durable construction can handle regular use without losing its shape or grip.
Everyday Home Use
For daily commuters and casual cyclists, the tape provides a straightforward upgrade that improves safety without adding weight or complexity. Its original Black base colour blends with most bike frames, so it does not look out of place on a standard machine.
Benefits and Buying Value
The CX-85 tape is sold as a complete set with all necessary accessories, which reduces the need for separate purchases. The reflective feature works passively, requiring no charging or maintenance beyond keeping the surface clean.
Reuse and Low Maintenance
Once installed, the tape requires minimal upkeep. Wipe clean with a damp cloth to maintain the reflective effect. The materials resist typical wear from weather and sunlight, so the tape should last through a normal riding season before needing replacement.
Why Choose This Product
The combination of a 2150mm length, 2.8mm thickness, and reflective rainbow surface gives this tape a practical edge over basic black tape. It improves visibility, adds hand comfort, and comes as a complete kit including bar ends plugs and insulating tape – all in one purchase.
