Momo Steering Wheel - MOD30 - 320 mm - Black Suede/Black Spokes/1 Stripe

Since the 1960s the Momo steering wheel has made the Italian brand famous all over the world. The design of each Momo steering wheel is the result of accurate ergonomic studies, the scent of fine leather, the harmony of every detail and the choice of the best materials.

The MOMO MOD 30 steering wheel is built for comfort and assuredness. The MOD 30’s flat bottom design offers easier entering and exiting of the race car. The covered rim is anatomically molded for optimum grip. MOMO MOD 30’s steering wheel spokes and thumb rest give drivers thumb placement options dependent on their preferred hand position. The covering material is suede guided by a yellow centering strap at the top. It comes with a moderate 39mm dish on a 320mm diameter, pre-drilled in the standard 6-bolt pattern and there is no horn button.

Momo was founded in 1964 by race car driver Gianpiero Moretti. In that year, Moretti commissioned a local craftsman to produce a custom steering wheel for his own racing car. This special steering wheel, the first Momo steering wheel in the Company's history, had a superior and thicker grip compared to the normal racing steering wheels available at the time. Drivers from other teams quickly noticed Moretti's new steering wheel and wanted the same for their cars, and so it started to gain fame within the racing community. The new Momo steering wheel also caught the attention of the then Ferrari Formula One driver, John Surtees, who wanted to mount it on his single-seater car. John Surtees' Ferrari, equipped with the Momo racing steering wheel, won the Formula One world title in 1964. And so it was that Gianpiero Moretti converted his passion into a manufacturing reality, and Momo (for Moretti Monza) was born.
