Pro Taper Pillow Top ATV Handlebar Grips — Black/Gray, Gel Cushioning & Anti‑Rip Tip

Pro Taper Pillow Top ATV Handlebar Grips (024859) are gel-surface grips with a firmer inner core and anti-rip tip designed to reduce vibration and improve hold on off-road handlebars.

These Pillow Top grips combine a tacky, gel-like outer compound with a harder inner core to create a secure bond to bars while cushioning impacts. Built with a high-durometer anti-rip tip and a tread pattern that sheds mud, they balance rider comfort, durability, and control for ATVs and UTVs. The grips are available in a black and gray colorway and are engineered for frequent trail use where vibration and debris are concerns.

How do these grips reduce vibration on rough trails?

The Pro Taper Pillow Top uses a viscoelastic outer compound that compresses under load to absorb small shocks and harsh feedback from the bars. A stiffer inner core prevents excessive movement and ensures the grip remains securely bonded to the handlebar during demanding terrain. Together they cut rider fatigue by smoothing high-frequency vibration while keeping bar feel.

• Gel-like outer layer cushions impacts and softens vibration.
• Firm inner core maintains a solid interface with the handlebar.
• Designed to preserve tactile feedback without feeling mushy.

Will these grips stay durable in mud, sand, and wet conditions?

Pro Taper applies a heavy-duty compound to the anti-rip tip to resist tearing and abrasion from frequent use and environmental exposure. The tread and surface geometry are created to self-clean so mud and grit are more likely to shed than pack into the grip. That combination extends usable life while keeping grip performance consistent in variable conditions.

• Anti-rip tip uses high-durometer material for longer wear life.
• Self-cleaning surface channels shed mud and debris during rides.
• Stable compounds resist water and abrasion-related deterioration.

How do these grips affect control and comfort during long rides?

The tacky surface improves hand purchase and reduces slippage when hands are sweaty or wet, while the cushioned top reduces hand and wrist shock. Because the inner core limits excessive compression, riders retain precise control inputs without losing feel at the bar. The net result is less hand fatigue and improved confidence on technical sections.

• Tacky gel surface increases hold in wet or sweaty conditions.
• Pillow top cushioning reduces hand and wrist stress on long runs.
• Inner core preserves crisp control and steering feedback.

Who is this for? The Pro Taper 024859 Pillow Top grips suit off-road riders who want a balance of comfort, durability, and control — especially ATV and UTV riders tackling varied terrain. They're a good fit for weekend trail riders, competitive amateurs, and anyone replacing worn grips who needs better vibration management and longer-lasting tips. If you want a tacky feel with proven wear resistance and reliable mud-shedding performance, these grips are designed for that role.
