I picked up an Easton E90 SLX3 bar for the Kona today. The Ritchey on there is simply too thin, and the bend/drop just does not fit my hands that well.

Now, what color bar tape should I get? :p

Painted into the white corner with that seat, yes.

There ARE rules ya know...
That's correct. Rule #8, to be specific.
http://www.velominati.com/the-rules/#8
"Saddles, bars, and tires shall be carefully matched.

Valid options are:
Match the saddle to the bars and the tires to black; or
Match the bars to the color of the frame at the top of the head tube and the saddle to the color of the frame at the top of the seat tube and the tires to the color where they come closest to the frame; or
Match the saddle and the bars to the frame decals; or
Black, black, black"

I've had the same roll of white Fizik Microtex tape on my bike for 2 years (about 8,000 mi.). It looks like new. I've even unwrapped it & re-rapped it & you cannot tell. Amazing stuff.
