Product Description: Ergon GP1 Grip
The Journey Begins!
The innovative Ergon GP1 has continuously set benchmarks for grip technology across the cycling industry since its inception.
Ergon GP1 Highlights and Specifications
GERMAN INNOVATION:
Created in Koblenz, Germany, the Ergon GP1 is the product of dedicated designers, ergonomic specialists, and engineers who share a fervor for cycling, just like you do.
WINGED DESIGN:
The grip's unique shape reduces pressure on the hands and alleviates pressure on the ulnar nerve, all while ensuring your wrist maintains a comfortable and ergonomically sound position. The GP Series grips help eliminate discomfort, such as hand pain, numbness in fingers, and soreness in wrists and forearms.
FORGED ALUMINUM CLAMP:
The adjustable grip angle allows for a personalized fit. You can easily readjust it when needed, and once tightened, this clamp prevents any twisting.
CARBON BAR COMPATIBLE:
The grips are suitable for all mountain bike handlebars, including those made from carbon.
22.2mm DIAMETER:
Designed to fit standard MTB bar diameters at the grip mounting area.
FOR SHIFTER TYPES:
- Standard Trigger Shifters: Long grips for both right and left.
- Gripshift/Dual Twist Shifters: Shortened grips for both sides.
- Rohloff / Nexus / XX1 / Single Twist Shifters: Shortened right grip with a long left grip.
Optimized Pressure Management and Hand Positions
Identified Problem: Finger Pain
Excessive pressure on sensitive areas of the hands leads to numbness in the fingers.
Proposed Solution: Full Hand Contact
Ergon grips ensure 100% contact with the hand's surface, as opposed to traditional round grips, which only provide about 60% contact.
Identified Problem: Hand & Forearm Pain
Unnatural wrist curvature creates pressure on the carpal tunnel nerve, often resulting in discomfort or burning sensations in the hand and forearm.
Proposed Solution: Improved Hand Position
By enhancing hand alignment, the carpal tunnel nerve experiences relief, effectively eliminating pain.
