Spare a thought for today s pillion. Bikes accelerate faster, brake harder and n at least at the sports end of the market n offer increasingly miserly passenger accommodation.So how to hang on n in comfort and safety Oxford has taken a fresh look at this challenge and applied its usual rigorous attention to detail to produce a unique solution which does the job and has been independently safety tested for peace of mind n Oxford RiderGrips. Key Features - Rubber grips are positioned thoughtfully on the rideris hips with the comfort of both rider and pillion in mind and have a generous aperture for large hands and padded gloves. - Two belts are used to secure the grips in place. The first is a hook & loop fastened anti-dive belt, which offers stability under braking. The second is held in place by a buckle, but all the acceleration load is taken up by the immensely strong main strap. - A sculpted, breathable, mesh backed pad at the front spreads any load taken up by the strap and its rubberised surface is friendly to the tank. - All load bearing points are flag-stitched for maximum strength and the thread used is marine-grade to prevent it rotting if left damp and in case it comes into contact with salt water. - Every component has been independently strength tested up to 180kg, which provides a comfortable margin for the 130kg rating deemed necessary for the product at the furthest possible extremes of usage. - 3M reflective stitching for improved visibility at night. - Comprehensive instructions in multiple languages complete the safety package.
