Designed for improved comfort for any drop bar handlebars. To install, simply lay or tape the pads onto your handlebars and then wrap over them with your favorite handlebar tape (handlebar tape sold separately). Sold as a pair (one handlebars worth). ShockTec properties prevent friction between the padding and human skin. This helps prevent damage to tissue and nerves that cause blisters or sores. Our product distributes weight evenly, is not a stiff material, and dampens vibration resulting in greater cushioning and comfort. Users will experience a Flotation Effect (no hard-spots) as they sit or lay on the padding. For years, this padding has been used by medical professionals to reduce bedsores and improve patient comfort.
