    Comments about Ergon Performance Grip GC2-L:

    These grips are the most comfortable grips out there, period. Once you get them dialed in your wrists will thank you.

    There are a few caveats to that, though. Dialing them in just right takes a while. Their tilt adjustment is very important and it will require several rides to get them perfect. Some complain that they limit technical riding ability, but they probably don't have them adjusted right. After the process of adjusting them, they provide a wonderful balance between grip security and comfort. Once they're there, they clamp nicely and stay put.

    They're "not compatible" with twist shifters, though you can buy special "twist shift compatible" versions for about double the price. Don't do that and don't worry if you have twist shifters. Five minutes with a hacksaw and these are perfectly twist shift compatible.

    They're kind of heavy for grips, but if you're worried about the grams your grips put on your bike then you're riding a SID and nothing about your bike is comfortable anyway. For everyone else, the weight "penalty" is well worth it.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

    Comments about Ergon Performance Grip GC2-L:

    I'm liking the feel of the grips, but I am not happy with the super tiny bar ends. I'm going to trade these in for the version that is sans-bar ends, and put my own beefier set on.

    But overall, pretty comfortable on long rides (4 hours +). Excited to use these on Kokopelli next month.

    Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          Comments about Ergon Performance Grip GC2-L:

          Thanks for the reviews folks, they helped me decide, and y'all were right, these are nice, nice grips. No more numbness.

          My bike is a flat bar commuter that I also ride for touring. I prefer the flat bars for around town because the shifters are convenient. And at my age - 69- I use a lot of gears for the hills around Austin, Texas.

          I like the bar ends that allow me to change positions, and the design is superb. About two weeks now, and they reall make a difference.
