@beeb it mounts just under the left brake mount so you can just lift it with your finger when on the hoods or if you’re in the drops just press it with your thumb, very light action and the price is good when you compare it to the other brands out there, here’s a crappy picture from my phone.

Get yourself some Lizard Skins DSP 3.2 bar tape (or 2.5), its absolute luxury and lasts a long time.

This is rad. Will definitely consider getting one for when I re-tape.

Not that it's as much of an issue on gravel bikes, but does it get slippery when coated with sandy/muddy hands? LIke the ESI flat bar grips which I assume is the same material.

I too like the ESI flat grips. The material is very similar, but I have just realised that the link I sent is for a newer design which I haven't tried. I'm still riding the old RCT Wrap which has been on my road bike for 3-4 years.

Oooohh just found this. It's more exxy but is the shape different to the one you have?

Mine is very similar but sleeker without the big paddle, I will get you a better picture of mine when I get home

As promised, very sleek compared to Pro but works just the same, unless you have really big hands I don’t think Pro one is any better. What I like about it is it’s unobtrusive for me riding and if you’re not looking for it you don’t really notice it.

That does look like a very elegant solution.

Can you take a photo of flicking the lever from the hoods?

Edit. Sorry, that is the hoods.

How about the drops?

I must admit, it had me dancing a jolly old jig.
