Very useful tape
Goes on the bike really good with a hairdryer. Will give excellent protection , I would just say that at £1 /10cm, it's not cheap.

Misleading photo
It's just the photo that could mislead you into the length of the roll. It is described as 1000 mm so bear that in mind. I was covering paintwork on a new expensive road bike. I put a strip down the rear of the seatube and around the tube where the chain might clatter and two more short strips to save against bag strap rub and that was it. Very expensive for what you get but a good quality tape. Nightmare trying to prize the two parts away from each other to find the sticky side. Would buy again though but should be less expensive. Fast delivery from seller.

You buy by the meter, so don't be surprised when you receive your 1m strip of tape..!
Great quality tape, yes it's expensive, but what's its protecting is even more expensive; in my case 300%+ more expensive...Easy to apply if you take your time and you make sure the area is clean and dry.I've used this tape to protect bike frames, but this purchase was to protect the hull on my new surfskis.It clearly states you are buying 1000mm, or 100cm, which gives you 1m and there is no surprise that you don't get a massive real of it, unless you buy more than 1m... I purchased 2m and was really pleased it was a 2m piece, not 2 x 1m pieces, saves on wastage.Read what you are buying carefully, and if you buy 1m, that's what you get, don't drip that the picture looks different... Buy 10m and you will get your full role, if that's what you want 😂.Recommended.

very clear tape you won't know is there.
The product sticks well and is fairly easy to apply (a little soapy water helps to position it). There are two strips applied to the chainstay in the photo and they're barely visible. I was even able to double up the tape near the crank for extra protection. I would just say that at £1 /10cm, it's not cheap.

A lot of money for not much tape.
A lot of money for not a lot of tape, went on ok with a hair dryer.Thickness of tape is good , just a same there wasn’t more of it.

Cheaper elsewhere.
Very misleading. You do get one metre as per description but add makes it look like you are getting a roll (you get a cut off from a roll). Shop around a buy yourself a 3-4 metre roll for £15-20 instead.

Good stuff but terrible value for money
OK it says 1000mm length on description which makes it look longer than 1m in marketing speak, but this was no where near enough to even do both sides of a small child's bike, just frame and forks. Will need roughly the same amount again to finish the job. Really bad value, really need to be more generous with the length for the price paid. Sticks well with no problems with bubbling.

Expensive but top notch
This take is amazing for protecting the bike! But it's very expensive so use sparingly, measure beforehand and be very precise with your cuts!

It did what I required.
Works as expected: feels like it will be resilient; it adapts to complex shapes(with a little heat); the adhesive is still holding (4 months after applying). Only downside is it is expensive for the short length you get.

Order more.
Very little for the money.

Tough protection for bike paintwork
The tape is expensive, but really effective in stopping cables scratching the paint on the bike. Adhesion is great on clean paint surfaces and once in place is almost unnoticeable. Good product, shame about the price.

Very good tape but why are they all so pricey?
It sticks very well and is very tough, not showing wear after being used where my SKS Raceblade mudguards' clips press against the fork and seatstays.I'd like to use this more liberally, but the price is extremely high for what it is (and this was the best value reel I could find with positive reviews). Perhaps this is why helicopters aren't cheap!

Misleading Advert
The photograph for the product shows a roll of tape however this is not what you get. 15quid buys you 1m!! Read the advert carefully please to avoid making an expensive mistake!

Excellent protection for bikes
This is a great product. It is actually backed with adhesive, you just have to peel off the protective film which is admittedly fiddly but straightforward. no problem applying to curved surfaces and provides a thick clear protective film. I am using on my bikes and at first I did think it was a very small amount of tape but really a roll of 1m length will cover what I need for at least four bikes or more. Definitely worth buying this rather than the pre-cut sheets of stickers. Good quality from 3M.

Tough tape
This is good, adhesive, tough, flexible tape. I've used it to cover the parts on my bike that would otherwise experience wear on the paint due to cables rubbing. It's been on the mountain bike and has been through mud, flint, chalk etc on the south downs and shows no signs of wear in the three months that I've used it so far. Expect it to last very well. Cheaper than buying patch kits specifically for bike use.
