This is the version riders usually end up on after trying everything else.The ProTaper 1/3 Waffle Grip already has that factory-style layout—less waffle, more usable surface. The Race Cut version takes it a step further with a cleaner, more dialed-in feel that serious riders prefer.You get that same 1/3 waffle setup, but with a more refined contact patch that keeps your hands planted without feeling bulky or over-textured.
