Selle Italia Bar Pad

Selle Italia Bar Pad

Bumps, rough asphalt, cobblestones…. The stresses from the road are transmitted directly to the handlebars in the form of unpleasant vibrations, which in turn causes annoying tingling in the hands and reduces comfort and grip on the handlebars, which inevitably has a negative impact on performance and safety.

In order to be able to absorb them and reduce them to a minimum, you need a handlebar “with muscles”: a simple but ingenious idea, the Selle Italia Bar Pad.

The Bar Pads consist of three layers of different materials: The first, in gel, helps to simulate the behavior of a muscle by squeezing on the support and finding the original shape in a few seconds once the pressure of the hand is released. In addition to the gel layer, the addition of PU foam and a third layer of Lycra help increase the softness of the bar pads. Can be perfectly combined with all handlebar tapes - the best combination is with the Selle Italia SG tape.

Thanks to the special composition of these two components, the Shock-Absorber Kit, in addition to being the lightest on the market, performs a combined action that provides a very effective absorption of vibrations from the ground, the ultimate solution to the inconvenience that the hands and wrists caused by driving under difficult conditions that were previously difficult to solve.
