Shimano 105 disc hand rest with handles ST-R7020 - Y0F398010

Give your brake and gear levers a new lease of life with the Shimano 105 ST-R7020 Y0F398010 grip covers. These replacement lever covers are designed to restore the original comfort, ergonomics and grip of Shimano levers fitted with hydraulic disc brakes.

Manufactured as Shimano replacement parts, these hand grips allow you to replace grips that have become worn, damaged, torn or less grippy over time. Part number Y0F398010 is sold in pairs, to fit both the left and right levers simultaneously.

A replacement part for the Shimano 105 hydraulic system

Shimano ’s Y0F398010 lever pad covers are specifically designed for the Shimano 105 ST-R7020 levers, an 11-speed dual-control generation intended for hydraulic disc braking systems.

The ST-R7020 lever combines hydraulic braking and mechanical gear-shifting in a single control. Over time, the hand grips may naturally show signs of wear, including a loss of grip, scuff marks or deterioration of the rubber.

Replacing the lever covers therefore allows you to quickly restore the original look and feel of the cockpit, without having to replace the entire lever.

Restored comfort and grip

Handpads play an important role in the ergonomics of a road bike control system. They form the main contact area between the rider’s hands and the levers when the hands are positioned on the shifters.

Replacing them with an original Shimano part restores a contact surface that is tailored to the shape of the lever. This is particularly beneficial for cyclists who ride regularly, whether on the road, over long distances or on competitive rides.

Beyond the aesthetic aspect, handpads in good condition help to maintain a comfortable and secure grip on the controls.

Wide compatibility with certain shifters Shimano

Although primarily designed for the Shimano 105 ST-R7020, the Y0F398010 hand rest is also listed for several other levers Shimano that use a compatible design.

Shimano ’s documentation specifically mentions the following models:

• Shimano 105 ST-R7020-L / ST-R7020-R
• Shimano 105 ST-R7025-L / ST-R7025-R
• Shimano Tiagra ST-4720 / ST-4725
• Shimano GRX ST-RX600
• Shimano GRX ST-RX400
• Shimano GRX BL-RX600-L

However, you must check compatibility using the exact part number marked on your lever before ordering.

Our workshop advice: it is essential to check the lever part number before purchasing. Shimano ’s shift levers may look very similar but are specific to certain models. Part number Y0F398010 is specifically designed for the ST-R7020/ST-R7025 and several compatible hydraulic controls Shimano.
