Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates

Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Hassle free returns

Your rights to return goods are protected under the EU Distance Selling Directive.

You are entitled to cancel your order and return the goods within 30 working days for a refund less the cost to us of shipping the goods to you initially. Your refund will be paid within 15 days. You are responsible for the cost and risk of loss or damage when returning the goods, so you should take out enough postal insurance to cover their value. This cancellation policy does not affect your rights when we are at fault - for example, if goods are faulty or if we have sent you an incorrect item.

Any goods returned must be in the same perfect condition as when purchased (including their packaging). Some items cannot be accepted for return due to safety or hygiene reasons - Cycle Helmets, sunglasses, underwear, and socks are included in this category. The goods must in an ‘as new’ condition and returned in the original, undamaged packaging, along with any accessories and free gifts received with them. You can examine the goods as you would in a shop but you must not have used or installed them or input any data on them (electrical items).

If we send out an order and it is returned due to non-delivery for any reason, we will refund the item but not the shipping amount paid for the order. This includes 3rd party or P.O. Box delivery addresses. Should the order be refused by the company it is considered the equivalent of the customer rejecting it themselves.

All returns should be sent to this address (and can be returned by hand if you are local) with a note requesting whether you wish for a refund or exchange:

The Edge Sports Internet Returns

If you are returning from outside of the EU, and if we have to pay any charges to receive the item that is returned, you agree that this will be deductable from your refund. We recommend that you state the item is a "Product Return" so that no customs charges should be levied before arrival at the shop. You are fully responsible for any return you send to us until we receive it. Please use a tracked delivery method for your own peace of mind.

If you are returning to us in Republic of Ireland, we have partnered up with An Post to make returns easier. You can create a return on this page and use it to create a label / drop off to an An Post collection area (subsidised cost of €7) or have a parcel collected from your home (€8.50):

In that case, that term is automatically omitted from the terms to the minimum extent necessary to comply with the law and without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder.

The business is based in the Republic of Ireland and the currency is Euro. We can process directly in Euro only. If you have paid with a bank card based in another currency, you may be subject to transaction fees and exchange rates that are outside of our control. If you then need a refund, we will refund the amount required, but due to currency fluctuations and bank fees, you may not see the exact amount returned to your bank account.

If you cancel an order while it is in transit to you, you will be charged a minimum of €7.50 to cover the cost of the return shipping (this is for orders in Ireland). The cost will be higher outside of Ireland. We promise that we will only charge you the actual cost to us, there will be no further surcharge. This cost will be deducted from any refund due for the item(s) returned.

Ere Research Tenaci Gravel Bar Cover Black

Season:2025

Brand:Ere Research

Code:14131751

Product Description:

This is a totally new product and we are quite sure you've never seen this before anywhere else. Our new Tenaci Gravel Handlebar covers are all you need to upgrade your handlebars. It'll make you experience your gravel adventure as you have never done before. They are designed to give as many pressure-relieved hand positions as possible and are exceptionally suitable for long days in the saddle.

The concept is as follows: for cruising and higher cadence climbing the top part of the handlebar is often used, so you want a bar tape that's thinner, grippy and has a softer touch. But when you’re down in the drops for hard climbing and pushing through at a higher power output when the going gets tough, you want a rougher and even more grippy handlebar grip. This has led to our new Tenaci Bar Cover concept. This is a classic bar tape, combined with a unique bar cover that you slide over the end of your handlebars, up to the shifters. The cover not only offers the ultimate grip on your bike but also protects your handlebars against side impacts.

To offer the best grip, we took inspiration from the nature around us. Mother Nature sometimes throws the biggest challenges at our feet, but fortunately, also offers beautiful solutions.

The grooves in the 'Terra' pattern on the Tenaci Bar Cover makes you think of a dried-up river bed. The grooves clear the Bar Cover free from mud and other dirt that ends up on your handlebars during bad weather conditions. Just like the channels in our inspirational riverbed, which lead the water back to the river during heavy rainfall. This ensures perfect contact with your bike at all times and never losing control, optimized grip, no matter how bad the weather conditions are.

The Terra pattern isn’t the only thing that keeps your hands firmly on the handlebar. We’ve also taken a good look at finger positions. That’s why we’ve added ‘knuckleheads’ for extra grip. They will keep your hands in control of your handlebar and prevent sliding of the hands in rainy and muddy circumstances, should they present themselves.

The Ere Tenaci Bar Cover comes with a classic bar tape, based on the Explorator Bar Tape. For the supplied handlebar tape we use smooth line wrapping and a Single Sheet.

Smooth line wrap is used to reach a smooth finish. This 35mm wide tape with an elongated chamfer flange creates a smooth overlap. It has no bumps and feels like one continuous, smooth surface.

Laminar Sheet handlebar tape is made with a fused PU & EVA foam layer that feels super soft and nice, especially if you ride without gloves. Due to the 3M adhesive, it can be applied smoothly.

80D is the durometer of our handlebar tapes. This is the best durometer hardness for the pressure of the upper body applied through your arms and hands to the handlebar.

Ere Silicon

To ensure a durable and firm connection to the handlebar silicon rings are included. The rings will fit on any handlebar type and keep the bartape firmly in place.

Our Ere Tenaci Bar Cover is one of those new little innovations that make sure every gravel ride is a ride you can enjoy.
