Stays in place without adhesive- could be longer.
Pros: Great feel and padding.
The tacky backing allows repositioning if you are playing around with lever positioning.
Bits of cork-like material help to soften the white color a little and make smudges less obvious.
Cons: Could be longer. With modern wider bars and comfort profile on the tops this tape is just barely long enough.
A bit fragile. The downside of wrapping and re-wrapping with almost too-short tape is that it's easy to tear.
