Has anybody tried wrapping road bike handlebars with these? Is the two rolls all one would need?

I actually bought this to wrap the handles of a walker that I bought for my wife after she broke her leg. She found the walker much more comfortable than the crutches the hospital charged us about $200 for. The supply covered both sides of it just fine. I think a reasonably sized bike handlebar would more than well covered. In fact, there should be quite a bit left over.

Yes there is two rolls and two bar caps, pretty good tape, I put it on my fixed gear bike and it works great. I run a higher quality SRAM bar tape on my racing bike

I would suggest you put a wrap or two or electrical tape then attach. "Rescue" tape is another option if you don't want sticky tape on your handle bar.

Try wrapping something around the bars where you put the mounts. Masking tape, electrical tape, paper etc. I had no problem tightening them on my Harley bars.

I've never tried to cover two bikes. However, the cover fits perfectly over my large frame size Specialized Sirrus Elite with 22" wide handlebars. My guess the answer to your question would be no. Hope this helps.

I used mine on various motorcycle handle bars. Should fit on road bike bars. It's has multiple slots for adjustment.

Handlebar tape is usually sold in a two roll set. One roll will usually do each side of a drop handlebar.

I have only used them on my mt. bike- check with the manufacturer to see if they are compatible with road bike wheels.

Sorry I can't tell since they are on my bars. But I have some stock Giant ergo drop bars and there was plenty of tape to wrap it with probably 6+ inches left over. Good luck.

I specifically use them on motorcycles. I wrap them around the handlebar and then hook my tie downs into the soft straps. It prevents damage to the handlebars and makes for quick and easy connect and disconnect. Hope this helps.

you are given two rolls, each one being ~6 ft, i used it on my mountain bike and used half a roll total for both sides. If you have a road bike with those curved handles i think you would need to use atleast 1 roll per side.

I have these bars and while riding there is almost no pressure on your wrists at all.. It's all in the forearm, and the wrists are only resting on the bars themselves. I suggest you buy some sort of tape before putting them on your bars because the metal clamps will scratch your handlebars, and in my opinion aren't quite tight enough by themselves. However, for the price these cant be beat.

pair...also comes with the caps for the ends of the handlebars. This tape is very easy to work with because it stretches and has a sticky strip on the back. You can wrap the bars and if you are not happy with the result you can unwrap it and try again! Watch how to wrap handlebars on YouTube for instructions

they are made to go on a handlebar that is .975 in diameter- that would be a pretty big stretch, IF you got them on they would probably split in not too long of time. Maybe try some pipe insulation from the hardware store

U can try and wrap several layers of bike inner tyres cut to approprian length and diameter around the handlebars

I am not sure what you mean by road bike handlebar, but on the harley I was it was attached to the bare handlebar and not once it sliped. It is very tight and to make it so you pull the strap via that large round hole so you get a lot of leverage. I hope it helps.

Yes - it uses zip ties as the main source of attaching to the bike - but you will probably want to add a couple of strips of rubber to improve the grip. Really depends on your handlebars and how "big" they are.

Yes I believe they are, but I used it on my roll cage in my racecar and they did not fit, maybe they would on bike handle bars
