Feedback on bar tape

Is this “Supacaz” bar tape that came on my bike fake? I was really disappointed with the bar tape only lasting technically 100 km. Another forum I am on, everyone says that Supacaz is very good stuff. I like their Sakura pattern as it would match my skateboard :skateboard: and I have a Sakura cherry blossom :cherry_blossom: tree in my backyard which holds a lot of meaning to me. But, I’m still hesitant because I want to confirm my theory that I got a knockoff bar tape before making any purchases. The bar tape that I have came with the bike and the bike was a good price so I don’t mind, but I’m not going to get Supacaz again if this is a legitimate product.

I ultimately suspect it’s fake/counterfeit but we’ll see what the WCC says.

We only user Supacaz bar tapes on all of our bikes (gravel, road and CX). It stretches enough to make installation easy, looks good, and is pretty durable. Not perfect though. But it does eventually flake off like that…but after thousands of KMs and/or really rough use. 100km is crazy so I would be shocked if that was real Supercaz tape.

Thanks. I have ordered genuine Supacaz then
