Ergon GP1 Grip
How it all began!
The original & ground breaking Ergon GP1 continues to set the standard for grip technology in the bicycle industry.
GP1 Features and Specifications
GERMAN INNOVATION: Developed in-house in Koblenz Germany by designers, ergonomic scientists and engineers who are passionate about cycling… just like you.
WINGED SHAPE: Reduces overall pressure on the hands and the ulnar nerve area while supporting the wrist in a comfortable, ergonomically ideal position. GP Series grips eliminate hand pain, numb fingers, sore wrists and forearms.
FORGED ALUMINUM CLAMP: Allows the grip angle to be adjusted for a custom fit. Can be easily readjusted as needed. Clamp eliminates twisting once tightened.
CARBON BAR COMPATIBLE: Use with all MTB handlebars including carbon bars.
22.2 DIAMETER: Fit standard MTB bar diameter at the grip mounting area.
FOR SHIFTER TYPES:
- Standard Trigger Shifters: Right and Left grips are long.
- Gripshift/Dual Twist Shifters: Right and Left grips are shortened.
- Rohloff / Nexus / XX1 / Single Twist Shifters: Right grip is shortened and Left is long.
Optimized Pressure Management and Optimized Hand Positions
Problem: Finger Pain
Excessive pressure on the sensitive areas of the hands result in numb fingers.
SOLUTION: Full Hand Contact
Ergon grips offer 100% contact with the hand surface area, versus traditional round grips, offer only 60% contact.
Problem: Hand & Forearm Pain
Excessive curvature of the wrist leads to undesired kinks in the carpal tunnel nerve resulting in a burning pain in the hand or forearm.
SOLUTION: Hand Position
By correcting the hand position, the carpal tunnel nerve is relieved and pain is eliminated.

Ergonomics
Rider and bike together as one.
The design of our saddles and grips are built to match the form of your body and lead to a better distribution of opposing forces. Unpleasant pressure points and related discomforts are eliminated.
Design
Ergon designers are cyclists.
They exhaustively develop and test new concepts and ideas where they will be used – in the heat of competition, on the road, in the forest and on the bike paths throughout the city.
Engineering
100% of our engineering and development is under one roof at HQ in Germany.
From computer simulations to rapid 3D prototyping to the final product form, every process is highly integrated and tightly controlled.
Pro Riders
Professional riders play a major role in the development of our products.
Competition pushes expectations to higher levels while subtle feedback from riders who spend their lives in the saddle leads to better product designs for everyday cyclists.

The grips that came with my bike had a palm support but did not clamp onto the handlebars so they would rotate. I saw these, made the purchased, and installed them on my bike. They appear to be great quality and the locking clamp works as expected. They haven't moved since I put them on my bike. I would buy them again.

I got these for myself years ago and just got them for my wife. I surprisingly get comments on these a lot on my bike. They help my hands with fatigue on longer rides and have just the right amount of design so they don't feel too bland while being a great bargain! I would absolutely repeat-buy these again

I had been eyeing these bike grips for awhile but was not sure if I should spend so much. I finally pulled the trigger and I am glad I did. They are well worth the price for the comfort you will receive. I ride anywhere between 30-50 miles at a time and the grips I had were so uncomfortable. This are incredibly well made and easy to install. They secure well to your handle bar and provide an amazing amount of grip and comfort. I really did not know what I was missing until I used these. They also allow you to change your hand positions to provide better control of the bike. The best part that I had no idea until I purchased these is that now I find myself using better posture and now my back doesn't get as tight as it sometimes would during my long rides.

Changed out OEM grips on Specialized Vado Turbo e-bike and so much better for overall gripping and comfort. Easy to adjust and secure with single screw and easy to install with in-stem mirror. Specialized would be well advised to do a joint venture with ERGON to include these grips on all their e-bikes.

Ich verwende verschiedene Ergon-Griffe an mehreren Fahhrädern, diese einfache Ausführung hier ist auch sehr gut. Ideal für Trecking-Stadt- und sonstige Räder ohne speziellen Anspruch.Die Form, Griffigkeit und Haptik lässt bei diesen Griffen nichts auszusetzen. Die Alternativen haben Hörnchen oder Konturen an den Außenseiten, hier läuft der Griff Flach aus. Die Hand wird gestützt und geführt, erlaubt aber auch andere Griffweisen, um mal die Handposition zu wechseln ohne zu drücken.Die Montage ist einfach, der Griff ist mit einer Imbussschraube gegen verdrehen oder verrutschen gesichert. Ein passender Schlüssel liegt nicht bei.Aus langer Nutzung weiß ich, dass sie robust und haltbar sind, bei Fahrleistungen von mehr als 5000 Km kann man auch mal den Griff, wenn nötig, wechseln. Das ist dann eben ein Verbrauchsgut, Reifen und Bremsen müssen ja auch mal gewchselt werden. Ich musste noch keine Griff ersetzen.100% made in Germany, ich gehe mal davon aus, dass hier keine Giftstoffe oder schädliche Weichmacher im Gummi sind. Bei manchen Nachbauten aus China wäre ich mir da nicht so sicher... und man hat viel Kontakt mit ihnen.Empfindliche Personen sollten vielleicht auch mal über gute Fahrradhandschuhe nachdenken.L-XL gewählt passt eigentlich für jede Handform, egal ob groß oder klein. Eingeschlafene Hände auch längeren Touren gehören damit der Vergangenheit an. Ich habe sie schon zweimal gekauft und würde sie auch wieder kaufen.

I do some endurance mtb racing for 50-80mi etc, usually taking 5-9hr or more and my hands thanked me big time for installing these. I have been using them now for good 5 years and re-purchased them on my last 3 bikes I had. On my last bike, when they wore out, I re-purchased them again. They are pretty sturdy, the rubber density is pretty firm with the just right amount of cushion. They last for a long time. They reduce hand fatigue during long mtb rides. I have now recommended them to others who also bought them and like them.Don't get me wrong, I too did not like that the price is higher than similarly looking no-name brand imitation grips that you can get for a fraction of the price. And I did that too. Then I developed a pain in my thumb during my endurance mtb races. I got bikes tuned, replaced cables, gears, repositioned shifters, brake levers, you name it. Nothing helped the pain. Than I realized that the pain developed right when I installed the cheapo no-name endurance grips. OK, I forked the money and bought these. Surprise, surprise. The pain disappeared shortly after. Lesson learned, fork the money for the best and forget about it and enjoy the sport you love. Apparently, it had to do with the thickness of the rubber near the shifter that caused strain on my thumb with the other grips. These Ergon grips are truly ergonomically designed. I won't dare to buy anything else. I wasted one full mtb season on troubleshooting this and riding my mtb in thumb pain. Hope this helps you not to make the same mistake.

Unfortunately, what I received from Amazon was the incorrect model, and had to return it. But, I found the GP1 locally, for less than Amazon's price, and have been using them for a few weeks now. Prior to these grips, I was getting numb in my ring and pinky fingers on both hands, far worse on my left (as I still have lingering nerve damage from a 2007 injury). The grips themselves were easy enough to install, but as of yet I have not installed the end caps, as they are way too snug for the (standard sized) handlebar and don't even go in all the way. I am leaving them off for the time being, while I decide on a bike mirror. But still, these could be easier to work with.Adjusting the correct angle takes some trial and error, and even now I am not sure I have it done right. I now get numbness in the thumbs rather than the other fingers. Yet, my wrists are now at a more correct angle, and overall it is a more comfortable riding experience with these grips. I ordered the large size due to long fingers--I'm one of those that has trouble finding even extra large gloves never fit me properly.Overall I am glad I invested in these grips, and am looking at getting another set (in small) for another bike in the family.Mounting tip: there are two size options, small and large. Also, make very certain you select the correct model. In the GP1, there are three different shifter choices. The Regular model fits trigger shifters. The GripShift fits grip shifters. There is a third model (the one Amazon sent incorrectly) for a Rohloff® / Nexus® shifter setup. For grip shifters, however, you may or may not be able to use these grips without changing out the shifters. One of the family bikes is a Giant Sedona, which utilizes a wide SRAM grip shifter. The GripShift model is twice as long as the existing stationary grips, so they will never fit. There are other grip shifters that use the newer narrow configuration (which you can buy for under $20), or you can also switch to trigger shifters for ~$25 and use the Regular model GP1.Overall I am glad I purchased these, but I still have numbness. Whether further adjustment cures that remains to be seen. As for ordering on Amazon, be aware that they do not yet have the right product options available, not to mention third party sellers who cluelessly add the same products themselves and make no note of model or size. You're possibly better off buying these in person, where you can physically see the package markings.
