    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

        Comments about Novara Gel Handlebar Tape:

        This tape is good. Much better then what came standard on my '74 Varsity. It was easy to install and seems like a quality product, very comfortable. I hope it will stand up to the test of time.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          There is enough tape to be generous when wrapping. Plenty comfortable as well.

          Comments about Novara Gel Handlebar Tape:

          I tried this bar wrap out a few years ago when the original wrap on my bike fell apart. One of my favorite things with this wrap is that the sticky back on this tape can be repositioned, even if you wrap half-way up the bar before realizing you want more overlap. This makes installation much easier than some of the other cork wraps I've used in the past. Wrap it tight and it stays in place too. I ride a few thousand miles a year, so I expected to get a season out of it but I've had it on for at least 2-3 years and it's just showing wear. Only criticism is I wish it came in different colors! I'm tired of black, and white looks disgusting after 500 miles.
