DescriptionThe whole story▼
Few grip designs carry the track pedigree of the Domino A450. Born in Italian racing and refined across decades of competition, the A450 in its black colourway channels that motorsport heritage directly to your handlebars — combining a purposeful aesthetic with the engineering substance that top-level riders have relied on for years.
Key Features
- Dual-Compound Thermoplastic Rubber (TPR) construction delivers confident grip in all conditions, from cold morning commutes to sustained track sessions.
- Multiconic surface finish reduces transmitted vibration and increases contact friction, keeping your hands relaxed over long distances or under hard braking.
- Universal fitment for both 22 mm (7/8 inch) and 25.4 mm (1 inch) handlebars makes the A450 compatible with virtually the entire modern motorcycle range.
- Open-ended design with 2–3 wire-retention slots suits a wide variety of throttle tube and bar-end configurations.
- Race-proven durability — the A450 compound was developed and validated in professional competition, not simply styled to look the part.
- Supplied as a matched left-and-right pair, ready to fit straight from the box.
Design, Finish and Heritage
The black A450 is the purest expression of Domino's design language: clean, restrained and unmistakably Italian. Where coloured variants make a visual statement, the all-black finish integrates seamlessly with any motorcycle livery — sportsbikes, naked bikes, tourers and race machines alike. The grip's sculpted Multiconic profile is both functional and elegant, shaped to guide the hand naturally into the correct riding position without unnecessary visual clutter.
Domino Italy has been producing precision throttle controls and grip systems since the 1950s. That legacy of craftsmanship is embedded in every A450: the compound is not a generic off-the-shelf rubber but a proprietary TPR blend developed through decades of motorsport feedback, used by factory teams and privateer racers in equal measure across MotoGP feeder classes and Superbike championships worldwide.
Performance on Road and Track
The dual-compound structure of the A450 addresses a fundamental tension in grip design: the outer layer must be soft enough to absorb vibration and provide tactile feedback, while the inner core must be firm enough to maintain dimensional stability under load. Domino resolves this by layering two distinct TPR formulations, so the grip compresses where it should and holds its shape where it must. The result is a handgrip that feels genuinely connected at 200 km/h and equally comfortable on a three-hour motorway run.
The Multiconic finish — Domino's patented surface geometry — creates a series of graduated contact zones along the grip's length. Rather than a uniform cylinder, the profile tapers and textures in a way that distributes clamping force evenly across the palm and fingers, preventing localised pressure hotspots that cause hand fatigue on longer rides.
