Q: What about bar plugs?

A: Bar plugs are required safety equipment on racing bikes, and recommended for preventing injury during falls. 

Our wraps do not include bar plugs with the kit. There are a lot of choices for bar plugs, including simple DIYs like champagne corks, and most are pretty inexpensive. Read more about your bar plug options on our blog post. 

 

Q: How thick is the leather?

A: The leather is approximately 1mm thick for the Coil Leather Bar WrapsBullwhip Bar Wraps and Sew-on Bar Wraps. We choose a thinner leather for these wraps so they are easier to install and have some stretch for curves and cables. 

Our  City Grips and Bare Knuckle Grips use a thicker leather, which is approximately 2.5mm thick.

 

Q: What can I do about padding / cushioning underneath my wraps? 

A: Padding on grips is a matter of personal preference - we've seen articles for and against it. Our infographic (see below) addresses which bar wraps can fit padding underneath. For a discussion of the various options and thicknesses, check out our blog post on the topic.

 

Q: How do I move, un-install or re-install bar wraps? 

A: It's as simple as getting the wraps wet, un-doing them, then following the original instructions to re-install.

Q: Can the city grips/bar wraps be cut down shorter to fit my bullhorn/twist shifter bars?

A: Any of our wraps can easily be cut down to any length you need with an exacto blade or scissors. It's best to do it yourself, so you get the exact length you want. You can even DIY your own edge dye by running a Sharpie along the cut edge.

When cutting, we recommend cutting from both ends before installation, so as to avoid cutting through the middle of stitch hole.

We don't recommend cutting the Bare Knuckle Grips short because it's hard to get the hole spacing correct. 

We've found that those leftover lengths of bar wraps make great wraps for all sorts of tools in your life - try them on broom and shovel handles!
