Ciclovation Grind Touch handlebar tape GXL Polyhyde Midnight Blue

Description

On gravel, broken asphalt, and in cold rain, what matters most is confidence in your hands. Ciclovation Grind Touch handlebar tape GXL Polyhyde Midnight Blue helps you maintain a firm yet comfortable grip, so you can focus on your line and pace—not on tingling palms. The Midnight Blue shade also matches the gravel spirit—subtle, yet full of character.

Main benefits

This handlebar tape is designed specifically for gravel riding, where surfaces change and vibrations keep coming. The textured Supersilk surface increases slip resistance even with wet gloves, and multiple layers of damping foam help reduce hand fatigue on long routes. A blend of natural rubber components and synthetic polymers maintains consistent performance in varying weather, so you can rely on steady grip. Practical details are a plus too: the bar-end plugs with expandable locking hold firmly and are less likely to work loose.

Technical specifications

The GXL Polyhyde version from the Grind Touch line is built for longer rides and wider, often flared gravel handlebars, as the tape is 2300 mm long. With a width of 30 mm, it wraps smoothly around the bends and provides solid coverage where you hold on, while the 3.6 mm thickness adds noticeable shock absorption without sacrificing control. The material is based on a rubber-polymer compound with gel padding and an organic backing; for e-shop categorization, silicone is also listed, supporting a pleasant, confident feel. The package includes one pair of tapes, finishing tape, and a finish ring for a clean end without sticky residue after installation.

Conclusion

Ciclovation Grind Touch GXL Polyhyde Midnight Blue is a handlebar tape that makes sense if you want comfort and a secure grip on mixed surfaces and don’t want to deal with the material behaving differently in heat than it does in cold. It’s suitable for gravel riders and for road use as well, if you prefer more pronounced damping and a longer wrap for modern handlebars.
