These are built for smaller hands, plain and simple. The ProTaper 1/3 Micro Grip takes the same proven waffle concept and scales it down so younger riders or mini setups can actually hold on without overworking their grip.The 1/3 waffle pattern isn’t just a style choice—it’s there so fingertips do most of the work. Less effort, better control, and way less arm pump for riders still building strength.
