About the product
Gustavo leather grips are a tribute to timeless craftsmanship and innovative design. Each pair is a masterpiece, meticulously hand-crafted with attention to detail, using the finest materials and patented production methods. They are named after Gustavo Manoli, who laid the foundation for Manoli Artisan Bicycle Grips in the mid-1970s.
About the Materials
Crafted from vegetable-tanned Italian leather, Gustavo grips are guaranteed to be toxin-free, ensuring a long-lasting, safe, and pleasant touch. Unlike cheap alternatives, our grips won't transfer harmful toxins to your skin with regular contact. The CNC-machined aluminium lock rings and hand-stitched construction with Tiger Thread enhance both durability and elegance.
About the Design
Our distinctive design elements not only look great but also serve practical purposes. The seamless leather endcap ensures an exceptional tactile experience and unmatched durability. Laser-engraved patterns help regulate moisture in the leather using the natural oils from your hands, enhancing grip. These exclusive features set our grips apart from other manufacturers and are protected by patent.
They're made with thin, chrome-tanned leather that can be toxic 🧪
Constant contact with harmful materials isn't good for your health ⚠️
Plus, the exposed thread and thin leather deteriorate quickly

The thread is the most sensitive part of all leather grips. Our thread runs below the surface in laser-machined grooves.
We use a laser engraved pattern to ventilate and auto–maintain the leather with the natural oils of your hands.
Our unique end cap design allows to have a robust and seamless leather surface around the end of the handlebars.
Our leather grips only get better with time. Move the slider and see how a grip looks after two years of daily use—still stylish and ready for the next adventure.
We use ultra thick braided polyester thread, that runs in laser-engraved grooves to permanently protect it from wear and tear.
Honey is our lightest leather with the warm tone of honey. It pairs perfectly with matching leather saddles from Brooks, Gilles Berthoud, or Ideale and harmonizes wonderfully with strong bicycle frames, from Brompton Piccadilly Blue to Bianchi Celeste. The leather darkens slightly over time and acquires a beautiful patina through regular use.
Bordeaux is Mama Manoli’s favorite! It really is. This color has the vibrant shade of well-aged Italian Barolo and develops its full color power in combination with all green tones like Emerald Green. The leather reacts beautifully to frequent use, becoming shinier and even more beautiful over time.
Our green option features the elegant shade of Italian cypress trees, so we call it Cypressa. It harmonizes beautifully with an earthy color palette. This leather color develops a patina reminiscent of antique leather products crafted for hunting, horse-riding, polo, etc. It pairs especially well with the Brompton Barbour Edition and the warm shade of Raw Lacquer Bronze.
Uva is the Italian word for grape, which gives this color its name. Uva Blu has the deep blue of Italian grapes. Our secret style tip: pair this shade with Brompton's Matcha Green. The combination is mesmerizingly elegant.
We call it Mocca, because it reminds us of the crema of Neapolitan espresso. It’s a vibrant dark brown, that pairs especially well with Brompton's classic British Racing Green, the raw Titan surface of a modern T-line, or as an elegant addition to Emerald Green frames.
Or Nero, as we call it, is our most versatile color. It fits with any bicycle frame and saddle. Initially, the leather shows some texture, but with frequent use, it will develop an elegant dark and glossy shine that looks fantastico!
Amazing quality. You can feel the care in every detail. I highly recommend this product as a bicycle builder.
