any Summary:
Someone mentioned to try bar phat tape, so I bought one. I bought 2.5mm version (not thicker version). This consists of soft bartape like a absorbent tennis overgrip which I found not durable
(thin and could tear easily) but which did not contribute a lot to shock absorption. It comes with 4 thin (2.5mm) gel pads for bar drop and top.
The gel may have absorbed some shock but also contributed to a loss of feel to me and this only works where it is placed, so when you are holding brake hoods, it does not work. You feel more detached, which can be a good thing or not. Strengths:
Absorbs some shock. Weaknesses:
Bar tape itself not great, thin, could tear, price.
