Abstract

A shock dampening grip includes a sleeve to be gripped by a person's hand, in use, which sleeve is of a resiliently deformable material, and which defines a bore for receiving a handlebar therethrough, in use, which bore is oblong shaped in cross section to allow generally linear transverse movement of the handlebar within the bore, the sleeve further including a dampening mechanism located in the operatively upper part of the bore. The grip further includes a pair of end caps configured to fit over and fasten onto a handlebar to define a pair of opposed flanges in use to capture the sleeve between them, and complementary guide formations respectively on the opposed faces of the flanges of the end caps and the edges of the sleeve to guide the movement of the sleeve along the generally linear path transverse to the handlebar, in use.
