[EltonFrog]

Someone helpfully posted a video of how to fit bar tape here recently. Can I find it? Can I 'eck as like! I've searched the Tube of U, I've searched the forum, I've looked under the stairs and I can not find the thread anywhere!

Where the flipin' blasty flippity flick is it?

Gawd!

I googled it too but I think Carl meant the specific one posted on CC.
[edit:]

There was on on CC, and he used a figure of eight method round the brake brackets.

Yay! Hurrah and I might add Huzzah! Where was that when I looked for it? Did someone take it without asking.

Many thanks.

Have a LIKE!

Having watched that I can see now where I went wrong. None of the other vids on the Tube seemed to cover that figure 8 clearly.

The other vids want you to figure-8 out for yourself.

IGMC...

Been meaning to do mine for ages, it's one of those jobs that I just never fancied trying myself, having watched that video I might just get round to it one day

Do most people take the oppurtunity to fit new cables while they have the tape off?
Mine haven't been changed yet in 3 years, mainly because of the expected faffage.

I'm trying to picture it...I could be wrong, but I don't think you need to take the tape off to change the cables, unless you intend to fit new cable outers as well. In 4+ years i've only changed one gear cable because it snapped. Maybe I should change all the brake and gear cables, but they aint broke yet.
