The original cork tape that set the standard for cycling comfort.
Introduced by Cinelli in 1987, the Original Cork Ribbon forever changed how handle bars feel and perform. Blending real natural cork with an EVA polymer matrix, this legendary bar tape delivers a velvety soft touch, exceptional shock absorption, and reliable grip in both wet and dry conditions.
Available in a wide range of vibrant and timeless colors, it’s the ultimate combination of classic Italian heritage, all-day comfort, and customizable style for any road, gravel, or urban setup.
