Product Details

Mini Machine overview & technology

Lizard Skins Mini Machine grips are engineered specifically for young riders who need a smaller, softer contact point. At 107mm long with a 30.5mm outer diameter and a single-compound, very soft elastomer construction, these grips prioritize comfort and confident handling for little hands. The grips use a molded single-compound rubber that provides plush damping and secure traction without complicated lock rings or multi-density inserts. Weighing just 71g per pair, the Mini Machine keeps rotating weight low while delivering a noticeably softer feel than adult-sized grips — ideal for balance bikes, kids' mountain bikes, and small BMX setups.

Key features & benefits

Compact dimensions: 107mm length and 30.5mm outer diameter match the ergonomics of small hands so young riders can wrap fingers around the bar and operate brakes confidently. The grips are sized for standard 22.2mm handlebars. Single-compound softness gives excellent vibration damping and a tacky surface for secure hand placement. The simple, durable molded construction means fewer failure points — clean, effective performance and easy to maintain. • Length: 107mm — optimized for kids' hand-span • Outer diameter: 30.5mm — small, ergonomic profile • Single-compound, very soft elastomer — plush feel, good grip • Weight: 71g per pair — light and unobtrusive

Fit, compatibility & installation

The Mini Machine fits standard 22.2mm diameter handlebars and is compatible with most children's and junior frames across mountain, BMX and general youth bicycles. Available in Black and Pink, they suit both open- and closed-end bars; check your bar-end plugs before installation. These are slip-on style grips (regular grip type). For easiest installation, use a few drops of isopropyl alcohol or soapy water to slide the grip onto a clean handlebar, align, then allow to dry. If your bars have integrated clamps or very aggressive textures, confirm clearance — the 30.5mm OD may feel snug on some tapered or large-diameter juvenile grips.

Who the Mini Machine is for

The Mini Machine is ideal for young cyclists and parents who want a reliable, comfortable grip solution tailored to small hands. It's perfect for kids' mountain bikes, small BMX rigs, balance-to-pedal transitions, and anyone who prioritizes control and comfort over adult-sized beefy grips. Coaches, bike shops, and parents will appreciate the simple, durable design that balances softness with longevity — a practical upgrade for learning riders gaining confidence on trails and in parks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these grips lock-on or slip-on?

The Mini Machine grips are slip-on (regular) style — they do not have an integrated clamp. Use a little isopropyl alcohol or soapy water to help slide them on, and allow them to fully dry before riding for a secure fit.

What handlebars will these fit?

They are designed for standard 22.2mm handlebar diameters, the common size for kids' mountain, BMX, and junior bikes. The 30.5mm outer diameter is intentionally small to match small hands.

How durable is the soft compound?

The single-compound, very soft elastomer provides excellent grip and vibration damping. Soft compounds can show wear faster than hard compounds under heavy use, so inspect regularly; for most kids' and recreational use you'll get solid life out of them with normal care.

Can I use them with grip shifters and brake levers?

Yes — the 107mm length and 30.5mm OD work well with most junior brake levers and twist shifters. Check clearances on very compact cockpit setups to ensure the grips don't interfere with lever reach or shifter bodies.

How do I clean and maintain these grips?

Wipe grips with mild soapy water and a soft cloth; avoid harsh solvents that can degrade the rubber. After cleaning, let them air dry. Replace if you notice tearing, excessive flattening, or loss of tack.

What color options are available?

The Mini Machine is available in Black and Pink, sold as a pair — choose the color that suits your child's bike or style.

Buying Guide

When choosing kids' grips, prioritize diameter and length first — small hands need a reduced outer diameter (around 30–31mm) and shorter lengths (about 100–110mm) so fingers can reach brake levers safely. Consider compound: very soft elastomers increase comfort and traction but can wear sooner than firmer mixes. Decide whether you want slip-on or lock-on styles. Slip-on grips like the Mini Machine are lightweight and simple; lock-on grips add security and are quicker to swap. Match color and material to your child's bike and riding style, and keep an eye on wear — replace grips when the surface flattens or tears appear.
