Wrong linky!
I think it's similar to the stuff I have on my Old Holdsworth, it's brilliant ... but dead hard to get cables through! Far better than fancy bar tapes!

Was it 853 or 753 you went for @Fab Foodie ?

Just in need of a gentle reminder.

Well, very nicely, although I feel a bit of a fraud being on this thread as I don't own a steel bike, much as I would love too, spent too much upgrading my two machines.
