PRO Shock Absorbing Handlebar Gel Pads

Isolate Your Hands From Road Shock
PRO Handlebar Gel Pads provide an additional layer of shock absorption to your bike handlebars to isolate road shock and help smooth out all the vibrations that send pins & needles straight to your fingers. If you do a lot of miles, particularly on rough roads, these inserts are worth the investment for the comfort they add to your bars and the relief they give to your hands.

Prevents Bar Tape From Drifting
Made from heavily-damping gel these inserts install underneath your bar tape and can readily be cut to size with scissors. Many people find it acceptable to unwrap existing bar tape, fit the gel pads and then re-wrap the old bar tape over the gel, but for optimum results it is best to install the Gel Pads with new handlebar tape. Suitable for most conventional road bike handlebars the pads have a tacky upper surface to prevent the bar tape from drifting.
