Leather get back whips were originally used by the nomadic outlaw biker gangs of the Sixties to increase their visibility while the colors would let people know what club they belonged to. When unclipped and removed from the handlebars, they could be used as a means to protect oneself. Motorcycle enthusiast today use them to give their bikes that vintage, throwback look. Our get back whips are made from 42" of blue and white hand-braided leather with a steel quick-release clip woven to it. Wrapped tightly at the end with blue leather, with blue and white threaded fringe and a single silver skull tied to one of the fringes, these get back whips add a great look to any bike and are the perfect way to increase your visibility while riding.
