Warmest Greetings,

I remember taping toe clips and strap buckles to give a little more comfort for my feet that were shod in Bata Bikers. After that tour I got leather covered Christophe Toe Clips. Nice and more elegant but I'm not sure worth the price difference over a little left over cloth tape. I still taped the buckle.

Sticky tape has had a long and useful past in modern history. Were would we be without duct tape now? A bike shop in alfred ny has tons of pink tressostar and uses it for rim tape.
