Lizard Skins

Lizard Skins built its reputation around DSP — Durasoft Polymer — a proprietary grip material with a softness and tackiness that no standard synthetic rubber matches. Founded in 1993, the company launched as a cycling accessories brand and grew DSP into one of the most widely used grip technologies in professional sport. Today, Lizard Skins sponsors two Pro Tour cycling teams competing in all three Grand Tours, including the Tour de France, and holds licensing agreements across multiple professional sports leagues.

At RA Cycles, the Lizard Skins lineup spans DSP bar tape in four thicknesses from 1.8mm to 4.6mm — covering everything from the weight-conscious road rider to the rider who wants maximum cushion — along with lock-on handlebar grips and frame protection kits designed to keep your paint in the condition it was in when you bought the bike.

About Lizard Skins

Lizard Skins was founded in 1993 in the cycling industry, focused on accessories designed to protect the bike and rider. The company’s most significant development came in 2008 with the introduction of DSP — Durasoft Polymer — a polymer-based grip material that became the foundation of the brand’s global reputation. With distribution in over 80 countries and sponsorships of two Pro Tour cycling teams racing at the Tour de France, Lizard Skins occupies a genuine position at the top level of the sport. More on the brand at lizardskins.com.

The RA Cycles selection focuses on cycling-specific products: DSP bar tape available in 1.8mm, 2.5mm, 3.2mm, and 4.6mm thicknesses — each with the same DSP surface, calibrated for different preferences in cushioning and bar feel — plus a range of lock-on handlebar grips including the Strata, Logo, Northshore, Peaty, and Charger Evo models. Frame protection kits (matte and gloss, plus individual patch options) complete the lineup.
