All-Road Bar Tape

One bike, every surface. All-Road Bar Tape is built for riders who do not stay on a single type of road, moving from smooth tarmac to gravel sectors and back without changing a thing at the bars. AMS designs its bar tape for grip, comfort and durability across all of it, and it is raced by the Spanish UCI ProTeam Caja Rural Seguros RGA in 2026 and 2027.

All-Road Bar Tape for every type of cycling route

The whole idea behind All-Road Bar Tape is versatility. It has to grip on wet tarmac, hold through a dusty gravel corner and stay comfortable when your route mixes both in the same ride, so you never think about your hands whatever the surface throws at you. A tacky, textured surface keeps a secure feel in the dry and the wet, giving you consistent control from the first road to the last descent.

That versatility is built in, not luck. A durable EVA base, a PU top layer and a shock absorbing gel damp the buzz of rough roads and broken ground, cutting the hand fatigue that builds when the surface keeps changing. The 2.5 mm build feels closer to 3.5 mm, adding real cushioning without the vague, disconnected feel of overly thick tape, which is what makes All-Road Bar Tape work as well at hour five as it does at the start.

Choose All-Road Bar Tape for road, gravel and adventure rides

The right All-Road Bar Tape comes down to where your rides spend most of their time. If you lean toward the road and want a firmer, more precise feel with comfort for the long stretches, Tessel 2.5 mm is the tape to buy. It keeps a controlled, performance focused character across mixed surfaces while cushioning the miles.

If your rides tip toward gravel, rough roads and true adventure, Sterrato 2.5 mm is the pick. It leans hardest into vibration damping and grip, with a tacky surface made for loose, changing ground and long days out. Riders who want the sharpest road feel can go for Tessel 1.8 mm, but for genuine all road versatility, choose a 2.5 mm tape and let the surface you ride most decide between Tessel and Sterrato.

Find All-Road Bar Tape with comfort and durability

Durability is non negotiable when one wrap has to cover every kind of ride, and this is where All-Road Bar Tape proves itself. In the brand's own long term test, Sterrato held its grip, comfort and appearance across close to 10,000 km of gravel, tarmac and wet riding with minimal wear, so you get a full season of mixed adventures from a single wrap rather than replacing it every few months.

Comfort comes ready to ride. The 2.5 mm build feels like 3.5 mm under the hands, and every roll ships with matching end plugs and finishing tape, wraps cleanly and peels away with no sticky residue when you refresh your cockpit.

You do not ride just one surface. Your bar tape should not be built for one either.

Which All-Road Bar Tape should I choose for mixed surfaces?

For mixed surfaces, a 2.5 mm tape is the sweet spot. Choose Tessel 2.5 mm if your rides lean toward the road and you want a firmer, more precise feel, or Sterrato 2.5 mm if they lean toward gravel and rough ground where damping and grip matter most. Both handle a mix of surfaces, so pick based on where you ride more often.

Is All-Road Bar Tape good for both road and gravel?

Yes. AMS All-Road Bar Tape is designed to grip and stay comfortable on tarmac and gravel alike, with a tacky, textured surface that holds secure in the dry, the wet and the dust. The 2.5 mm builds add the cushioning that mixed and rough surfaces demand, so one wrap covers road and gravel without compromise.

How durable is All-Road Bar Tape?

Very. In the brand's own long term test, Sterrato lasted close to 10,000 km across gravel, tarmac and wet conditions while keeping its grip, comfort and appearance with minimal wear. That makes All-Road Bar Tape a wrap you can trust through a full season of varied riding.

What comes with AMS All-Road Bar Tape?

Every roll of All-Road Bar Tape ships ready to install with matching AMS end plugs and finishing tape, so nothing else is needed to wrap a clean cockpit. It also removes without leaving sticky residue, which makes refreshing your setup quick and simple.
