DSP Technology for Superior Performance

Lizard Skins DSP is not just a tape; it is a high-performance component designed for cyclists who demand the best from their cockpit:

• DuraSoft Polymer (DSP): Lizard Skins' exclusive technology offers a unique tactile sensation. The material is incredibly "tacky," ensuring your hands stay firmly on the bars even during heavy rain or intense sweating.

• Optimized Shock Absorption: Despite its sleek 2.5mm profile, the polymer’s molecular structure filters high-frequency vibrations, reducing hand numbness during long training sessions or races.

• Record Lightness: Weighing only 74 grams for the entire set (including plugs), it is one of the lightest tapes on the market—ideal for those looking to shave grams without sacrificing comfort.

• Durability and Resilience: The new compound has been reinforced to better resist abrasion and aging, maintaining its elasticity and the brilliant Violet Purple color ride after ride.

• Professional Installation: The included screw-in plugs ensure a clean finish and prevent the tape from slipping off the handlebar ends.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Should I stretch the Lizard Skins tape tightly during installation?

Important: Unlike foam tapes, DSP handlebar tape should not be overstretched during installation. Use only light tension to make it adhere; pulling too hard may damage the outer polymer layer.

How does it perform in the wet?

It is one of the best tapes in the world for rainy conditions. The DSP material becomes almost "grippier" when damp, providing total security even on technical descents in the rain.

Is it easy to clean?

Yes, simply use a soft cloth with lukewarm water and mild soap. Avoid aggressive degreasers that could damage the surface polymer.
