How does woven tape compare to cork for comfort on long rides?

Cork has slightly more natural cushioning at equal thickness. However, the 2.5mm EVA backing on the BTP woven tape provides good vibration absorption for most road distances. For 200km+ rides on rough tarmac, cork's extra softness becomes more noticeable.

Will the colours fade with UV exposure?

Polyester is more UV-resistant than natural cork, but prolonged direct sun exposure on a parked bike will gradually affect colour vibrancy. Store in a garage or cover handlebars if leaving the bike in sun for extended periods.
