Manoli is developed (and used daily) by this guy. Martin is originally trained as an architect and designer for interactive exhibition spaces.
While Martin was constantly creating new bicycles, he always faced the same dilemma: Where to get leather grips of truly satisfying quality? They need to match the beautiful leather saddles from companies like Brooks England and Gilles Berthoud. And they need to last a life-time.
There was no such thing available on the market. Not even close.
Here is a picture of the first Manoli Grips Prototype. It has been used daily for about 1 year, when this picture was taken. They are still mounted on his Brompton bicycle and look even better today.
Martin has had a massive soft spot for bicycle design for more than 20 years. He is so crazy, it eventually took over his focus.
One of his bicycles creations was voted into the top 10 bicycles in 2014 by a very famous bike website.
It took about a year to develop a serious prototype. And after using it for a while, it became evident how good this product actually is.
It took another year to devolop a real product and file a patent. Then Martin founded MANOLI GRIPS.
Check the video. It shows how MANOLI GRIPS are made.
In July 2022 MANOLI won Gold at the Edison Award in the category Creative Economy.
