I took my bike in last week and had new bar tape put on it. The original Cannondale gel tape was not wrapped with a lot of overlap and it was causing a lot of fatigue on my hands. The guys at the shop wrapped the tops of the bars with a lot of overlap to make for a more comfortable ride. My old Fuji was wrapped the same way and the guys at the new shop I have been going to hit exactly what I wanted!! I chose blue to accent the blue in the frame. The final touch will be putting blue Maxxis Detonator tires on Monday, just waiting for UPS!



I also put on dark blue bottle cages.



With DH's R5000. Look how tiny my bike is! I guess that is expected I am 5'2", he is 6'2". He recently traded his black bar tape for the screaming orange.
