Lizard Skins, long renowned for focusing on rider contact points and protecting your bike, has just reintroduced one of their earliest products: a new take on an old favorite, now called the DSP Lever Grip. Plus it’s considerably improved from the original, which were made from Neoprene. The new lever grip uses Lizard Skins’ proven Dura Soft Polymer (DSP), which provides even more reliable grip and control on brake levers.
The DSP material is long renowned for its no-slip, super-grip performance on the brand’s handlebar tape and is ubiquitous on Major League Baseball bats and National Hockey League sticks, and is gaining wider use on lacrosse sticks and even gaming controls – basically wherever a hand relies on secure, reliable grip on an implement.
Thanks to the new material, the DSP Lever Grip offers – and improves upon – all the same advantages as the original: easy fitment, slip resistance, universal fit, and better feel and control under braking.
Lizard Skins’ DSP Lever Grip is offered in three colors: Platinum Grey, Jet Black, and Crimson Red. And each pack comes with four lever grips, so you’ll have a spare set when you need it.
“We have been using our DSP technology for years across multiple sports, and in various thicknesses, so it seemed logical we’d use it to improve a rider’s grip while braking,” says Ryan Huntington, Lizard Skins’ Sales & Marketing Director.
“I remember coming out with the original neoprene version, and people liked the added feel and texture. Now I see more people riding gloveless, so I felt the time was right to bring back this classic Lizard Skins product, but using our tried and tested DSP technology which improves the rider’s grip of the brake lever,” adds Brian Fruit, Founder & President. “ As a company of riders, we are constantly looking for the next area, no matter how big or small, that Lizard Skins can improve the rider’s experience on being on their bike.”
