Massi Handlebar Pads for Shimano Ultegra 6700 - 39322

Massi 39322 handpads are a pair of replacement covers designed specifically for Shimano Ultegra 6700 brake and gear shift levers. Designed to replace worn-out original rubber grips, these grips restore comfort, grip and the appearance of your road bike’s controls.

Available in black, the Massi 39322 offer a cost-effective solution for refurbishing Shimano Ultegra ST-6700 levers without having to replace the entire set of shifters. Part number 39322 corresponds to the black version, sold as a pair.

Massi lever covers for Shimano Ultegra 6700

Over time, the rubber grips on road bike shifters can deteriorate: the rubber may become sticky, develop cracks, lose its elasticity, show surface wear or become discoloured.

Replacing the hand grips restores a clean and comfortable contact surface whilst retaining the original Shimano controls.

Massi 39322 have been developed as replacement parts for the Ultegra 6700 series ‘ Shimano ’ shifters. Their compatibility is specifically limited to this generation of shifters.

A pair of lever covers for Ultegra 6700

Part number 39322 is sold as a pair, allowing you to replace both shift lever covers on the bike in one go.

The kit therefore includes:

• a palm rest for the left shifter
• a palm rest for the right-hand shifter
• colour: black

Replacing both sides at the same time ensures a consistent finish and the same level of grip on both shifters.

Shimano Ultegra ST-6700 compatibility

The key consideration before purchasing is compatibility.

Massi 39322 are exclusively compatible with Ultegra 6700 Shimano . Several catalogues Massi specifically identify reference 39322 as the black version compatible with Ultegra 6700 Shimano.

They are therefore intended in particular for use with the following shifters:

• Shimano Ultegra ST-6700
• Shimano Ultegra 6700 series

Please note: these should not be regarded as universal. The Shimano 105 5700, Dura-Ace 7900 or Ultegra 6600 lever covers use different part numbers.

Restoring comfort to your road shifters

Grip covers are in direct contact with the cyclist’s hands. Their condition therefore has a significant impact on riding comfort.

Old rubber can become hard, sticky or slippery, particularly after several years of use. Replacing them with a new pair restores a more comfortable grip on the shifters and when changing position on the handlebars.

The 39322 Massi s are therefore particularly useful for restoring a road bike fitted with an Ultegra 6700 groupset that still works perfectly but whose grip rubbers are worn.

A cost-effective alternative to replacing the shifters

When an Ultegra 6700 Shimano works correctly but its lever cover is worn, it is not usually necessary to replace the entire shifter.

Replacing the grip covers is a much more cost-effective option and allows you to retain:

• the gear-changing mechanism
• the brake lever
• the existing settings
• the cables and housings in place
• the position of the control on the handlebars

It is therefore a particularly attractive option for restoring a vintage road bike or a bike that has been kept in excellent mechanical condition.

How do you replace the Shimano Ultegra 6700 hand guards?

Replacing them mainly requires patience to position the rubber correctly around the grip.

Start by carefully removing the old grip covers. Then clean the surface of the shifter to remove any dust, rubber marks and any residue.

Position the new grip, ensuring it is facing the correct way round. Gradually slide the rubber over the lever without using any metal tools that might damage it.

Once fitted, check that all parts cover the lever correctly and that the brake and gear shift levers move freely.

It is advisable to check that it is correctly positioned before setting off again.

Why replace your lever covers?

Replacing the lever covers offers several benefits:

• improved comfort for your hands;
• better grip;
• removal of sticky or worn rubber;
• improved bike aesthetics;
• protection of the shifters;
• extending the lifespan of the shifters.

It is also an excellent solution for refurbishing a road bike without unnecessarily replacing mechanical components that are still in perfect working order.

The pair of Massi 39322 handpads is a simple and cost-effective replacement for the Shimano Ultegra 6700 / ST-6700 shifters.

Sold in pairs in black, they allow you to replace worn, sticky or damaged lever covers whilst retaining the original Shimano shifters. This part is particularly well-suited to the restoration and maintenance of road bikes fitted with the Ultegra 6700 groupset.
