  • Detail
    MTB grip with two world championship titles on the long distance: the GS1 MTB Racing from Ergon When riding, your hands support a lot of your upper body weight on the handlebars, placing high pressure on a relatively small grip area. In many cases this puts too much pressure on the ulnar nerve that runs near the base of the palm near the pinky and close to the skin's surface - often causing numbness. The winged grip increases the hand's supporting area by distributing pressure over a wider surface and thereby preventing discomfort. If your wrist is bent too much for too long, nerves, tendons and blood vessels can become compressed. The result is the carpal tunnel channel is constricted, which could cause damage the median nerve. Long rides and fatigue make it even harder for the rider to maintain a correct and healthy posture. The winged design of our GS grips gives the hand more support and automatically puts the wrist into a more ergonomic position, preventing numbness, tingling and pain. Features - Ergon GS1 MTB Racing Grip rubber made in Germany - The materials of Ergon grips meet the highest quality standards being TUEV-certified, durable and unique in the world in the field of bicycle grips. The super soft, UV-stable rubber compound of the GFR1 is developed and manufactured in Germany. Ergon's core values of ergonomics, product design and engineering all happen in Germany. Locked down for safety - The GS Series clamping system is extremely secure and easy to mount. Each grip is tightened with only one bolt to reliably secure its position and to prevent twisting. Another important safety feature is that Ergon's aluminum clamps are cold forged and not extruded - resulting in a much stronger structure. Supportive structure - The specific rubber compound used in the GS series provides maximum comfort for long distance riding. The grips have just the right amount of flex and support ideally distributing the pressure across your hands. The grip's texture ensures a very positive, confident grip, preventing your hands from slipping in demanding trail conditions. The difference refers to the grip width (hand size), meaning a larger hand will have a more positive fit on a thicker grip, while a smaller hand is better fit to a smaller grip.
