Intuitive to install, our Coil Leather Bar Wraps wrap around the handlebar like typical bar tape. But unlike typical bar tape, our high-quality full grain veg-tan leather is a high-performance material that is durable in the elements, warm to the touch, and gets grippier when wet.
Using the unique qualities of veg-tan leather, no sticky tape backing is required, allowing the natural leather to stay fast in place once installed, but able to be transferred from bicycle to bicycle over the years. It gets more beautiful with use and age, developing a rich patina for a lush look and outstanding handfeel.
Like our other bar wraps, the Coil Leather Bar Wraps come as a kit that you install yourself on your handlebars. The simple coil tape design is flexible for any kind of handlebar dimensions: it can fit around H-bars, ovalized ergo bars, flat-top bars, moustache bars - plus anywhere else you might need a little wrap, including top tubes and chainstay guards.

Our high quality leather can be uninstalled from one set of handlebars and re-installed on a new set: simply un-wrap and re-install the same way you installed them the first time. Double-sided tape (optional) and leather care dressing available in our Parts section.

I needed bar tape to pair with an unusual burgundy colored saddle. Geoffrey guided me through the color options to settle on a custom oxblood tape. End product is stunning. Leather is strong yet supple enough for easy wrapping. It will be a joy to place my hands on the bars.
These are high quality and easy to work with. Plus they look amazing on my bike!
I noticed little spots of paint transfer from bike racks at work, so I decided to leather wrap my bike in spots that have potential for this type of damage. I am planning to order more to replace some cheaper leather I used in a couple of spots, and to rewrap my Brooks grips; this leather is so much nicer than what they came with. Very highly recommend for a touch of vintage class.
