Years ago I used to put cloth bar tape on the frame where bottle cage clamps and Pletscher aluminum racks would clamp. After a few years the tape will take the paint off when removed. So the small hidden chips/scratches I now consider the lesser evil.

Just curious, if any of you put cloth or rubber or any other material between clamp on items like Derailleurs or shifters to protect the paint and frame underneath. Thanks Todd Grantham Fort Wayne, IN USA
