The soft rubber compound, combined with the profiling, gives the palm and fingers plenty of grip. An extra portion of rubber on the upper side absorbs shocks very effectively without the grip becoming spongy. The aluminium clamping ring on the inside secures the grip to the handlebars without twisting and leaves enough room for the hands on the outside to grip the handlebars far out.
