Developed and tested using the input and assistance of top factory race teams from Europe and the USA. The result is a grip that is available in a choice of three advanced synthetic rubber com pounds, especially formulated to achieve the optimum combination of strength, tackiness and shock absorption to suit every riding condition and individual style. Special technology insures maximum retention of tackiness under exposure to sunlight and weather. Each of the three componds is available in five different patterns, all using a Raised Diamond Surface . This surface gives excellent feel, shock absorption, low mud retention and allows the use of the lowest possible grip diameter. The new dual compound grip combines the longevity of the Renthal firm grip and the feel of the soft compound. The result is longer life and greater comfort.
