Yeah, it moves a little bit- but not much. It's thick leather (more than
1/8") and it's "fastened" radially to the spokes of the wheel.
There might be adhesive on it but it's not obvious.
I like it- it sticks to my hands. Was a bit iffy during the cold weather
when I had no heater (wearing leather gloves- so it was slippery), but now
that mild weather is here (and the heater works), I love it.
