Maximum gravel fun with no discomfort: Ergon has developed its handlebar tape BT Gravel specifically for this purpose. With its 3.5mm thickness and aggressive, block patterned surface texture, shock and vibrations are absorbed, delivering the perfect grip and bike control on the most technically demanding terrain. This special bar tape for all gravel riders reduces pressure on the hands, feels good to the touch, and provides a secure grip. The BT Gravel can be wrapped to individual preferences – thinner/thicker or increased/decreased grip texture – as wrap positioning guide marks are incorporated into the bar tape surface pattern.
- Reduces Hand Discomfort and Vibration
- Excellent damping, maximum grip
- Less fatigue, more riding fun and performance
Features
Reduces discomfort when graveling.
A low, stretched riding position with a highly angled saddle, relatively hard contact points with localized pressure on the sensitive nerves of the hand and wrist often leads to pain when riding gravel. Ergon handlebar tapes reduce hand discomfort and nerve irritation. The variable thickness and special material structure with AirCell Foam dampens vibrations and effectively distributes pressure on the hands.
BT Gravel Bartape reduces hand discomfort and nerve irritation.
Comfortable on Any Surface
With this 3.5mm thick bar tape, gravel riders benefit from the best vibration damping, extra grip, and outstanding bar feel. The extra comfort is clearly noticeable. Increased control on the handlebars reduces hand and arm fatigue so you’re less tired on longer, technically demanding terrain. This handlebar tape simply feels good, increases fun, and improves performance on any riding surface.
The BT Gravel Bartape offers more comfort for the hands.
Under Control at All Times
The BT Gravel is not only the perfect connection between the hand and bike to the riding surface, but the aggressive, block patterned surface texture of the handlebar tape is also extra slip-resistant. This ensures the bike remains in control at all times and in all riding situations.

3 Layers for the Perfect Grip
Non-slip, lightweight, less hand pressure. Ergon handlebar tapes are made of three precisely developed material layers. The water-repellent non-slip surface (Anti-Slip Comfort Top), the lightweight foam (AirCell Foam), and the adhesive tape on the underside all result in a secure grip, lasting surface durability, and excellent pressure distribution with light overall weight.
Individual Fine Adjustment
Integrated wrapping position marks make it easy. With the incorporated wrapping position marks, the BT Gravel handlebar tape can be easily fine-tuned to your personal preference – wrap it a little thinner or a little thicker.
2 Directions
More grip or more freedom of movement? Dual directional surface. The wrapping direction determines your individual preference – for more grip or more freedom of movement.
Extra-Plus for More Comfort
Upgrade with the BT OrthoCell® Pad Set. For those that want even more comfort on gravel handlebars, Ergon has developed the 4-piece BT OrthoCell® Pad Set. The pads, made of orthopedic high-performance foam, are positioned under the handlebar tape to significantly increase comfort. The OrthoCell® high-end material, entirely developed in Germany, comforts hands and wrists in any grip position.
Extra Length for Gravel Handlebars with Flare
The BT Gravel is 2.30 meters – longer than our other handlebar tapes. This means that wider handlebars with flared drops can be wrapped without problems.
