The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Ergon GP5-L Grips - Large:

As stated these offer a variety of hand grips, including out of the saddle use. Only the outer side of the handle has a bolt so the grip must be fully on the handle to tighten securely. I had to move the brake and shifter inward to accommodate it. The angle of the two pieces that form each grip is adjustable- until the bolt is tightened. I opted for a mirror that clips onto sunglasses, a bit cheaper than the helmet mirrors. These grips and pedal straps/clips are a must for long rides!

Comments about Ergon GP5-L Grips - Large:

I bought these to replace the stock grips on my hybrid bike. They are very comfortable and give at least half a dozen different hand positions. Both the hand grip and bar end are separately adjustable with the same bolt using an allen key. They are a little firmer than one other ergonomic grip on the market, but with a little more firmness and the pattern on the grip you get better control. Much more comfortable than a metal bar end.
By themselves they won't alleviate hand numbness. IMHO you need to first adjust the seat so it is level or tip a bit up so that you aren't supporting your weight on your hands. You also need to change positions frequently.
For years I used a bar end mirror for riding in traffic, but there is no way to attach a mirror unless it is to the grip itself. You can't use a bar end mirror; so either do without or attach one to your helmet or glasses.
Overall an excellent upgrade.
