Best Grips Ever!
WOW! These are the best flat bar grips I have ever used in 25+ years of cycling! Your hands will feel so good that you won't want to let go of the bar. They cushion the road vibrations, allow for a firm grip, and control. They also make it easier to stand up on the bike. Not to mention--they look great on my old bike! Wish that they made them years ago--my rides would have been more enjoyable. Great reasonable priced gift too for anyone that has a flat bar bike. This product is a, "no-brainer."
pure comfort
I'm 56 and have had trouble with hand numbness on the mountain bike I have set up with 1-1/2 inch road tires. I use the bike for utility and country road touring. (My road bike with drop bars is comfortable, no numbness.) These grips solved the problem after a few test rides with them rotated to different angles. I can't comment on durability after only a couple of weeks. They also support your wrists so instead of having them fold backward or holding them straight with muscle effort your arms are more relaxed. They slide right on the bars and tighten securely and easily. With a hex wrench in a pocket you can easily adjust their position during a ride. What a relief. Thanks, Ergon!
Great for long distance touring
I added these to my Novara Safari's butterfly bars and they are extremely comfortable on long rides. Plus, I put them on my wife's Surly Long Haul Trucker with butterfly bars. She was having numbing in her hands and sore wrists before we put them on, but now she has no complaints. We both love the product and recommend them to anyone using a straight bar or, in our case, the rare-to-find butterfly expedition bar.
Best flat bar grips i've found so far
I've been riding for about 20 years and have tried many many different grips trying to find one that worked for me on a flatbar bike. These are the best ones that I've found so far. They have proved quite comfortable with only mild numbness after longer rides (25-60 miles). Thanks to the fixing bolt, they have always stayed put. My first pair lasted me around 10,000 miles before they were well worn and somewhat sticky from the worn down rubber. I've also used these on my mountain bike, and while they don't let me grip my bars quite as well as normal grips, they work well enough that I've done some pretty fast/steep/rough riding with confidence (~30mph downhill, washboard dirt roads, jumps).
Excellent Grip
I'm loving the thicker feel these grips give to my handlebars. Once tightened, these things just don't slip out of position. I found angling the grips slightly upward gave me the best comfort and hand position. Really helped to relieve the numbness I used to feel with the stock grips on my Trek 4500. For the type of trail riding I do these are wonderful. However, if you do more technical maneuvers and need a full grip all the way around the handlebars then these may not be for you. I would still recommend giving them a try first though.
These Grips Rock
I have been riding and racing mountain bikes since the late 80s, I have tried alot of different grips, these grips are awesome. I bought these grips at Pedros Fest Last year, and later bought a second pair for the commuting bike. I was having problems with hand numbness on long off road rides. With the extra support and ergo design of these grips, hand pain is no longer a problem. Some reviewers commented that they can grip the bars hard enough for real technical riding situations. I think it depends on your skills and experience and the type of ridding you like to do. These grips work great for me on technical singletrack cross country type riding that I most often do. They may not be the best for downhill or free-ride specific riding, because your pinky and third finger do not wrap all the way around the grip.
Breathe new life into old handlebars!
This is a wonderful alternative to most handle bar grips out there. I can't believe it took this long for grips designed like these to come out. Specialized has some Body Geometry grips which are a bit ovalized, but I recommend these to everyone. My only gripe is that I've had to tighten them every few months, but it may be because I'm afraid of overtightening them. I've had these for over a year on a relatively new bike and have never regretting buying them.
comfort
I have used several mt bike grips but these really take the cake away from all the rest-- my hands are not as tired after a ride. I find that since I do not grip as hard the ft end stays on the ground better on steep climbs which I do plenty of and love. In other words they truly help me to have better control of the bike and hence track better. Bottom line---great product which adds power, comfort and control on the trails.
The best, hands down!
I was looking for a new pair of grips and due to frequent hand numbness I looked into these. I put them on my Rockhoppr hard tail to ride to work and around town. The moment I felt them in the store, I was sold, on the bike they are even better! Install was a breeze, I wanted to keep my bar ends, after talking to the bike dept. at REI, he assured me they would work, and they did!
Great grips
I found the right grips!! It took maybe 2 minutes to install them. After the first 20 or so miles I had to adjust them because a few fingers in my right hand went numb. After minor adjustments were done I haven't had a problem. I've put 300 miles on these and they feel great. there are other versions that may be better than these...but I got the right price Jefferson could afford.
