Product Information
Full details
The Ergon GP1 Comfort Grips are designed for touring and mountain bikers seeking superior ergonomic support and relief from hand numbness during long rides. By utilizing an internally supported platform that corrects wrist positioning, these grips effectively distribute pressure across the palm; however, users should ensure they select the correct size (Small or Large) based on their hand dimensions to achieve the optimal fit.

FAQs
How do I determine if I need the Small or Large size?
The Large size is designed for a hand circumference of 8.5 - 10.5 mm. If your hand size is smaller, choose the Small variant for a more secure fit.
Can these grips be used with carbon handlebars?
Yes, but ensure you follow the torque specifications provided by both Ergon and your handlebar manufacturer to avoid damage.
Are these grips compatible with bar ends?
While the GP1 is a standalone grip, Ergon does offer specific models with integrated bar ends if you require additional hand positions.
How much do these grips weigh?
The pair weighs approximately 202g, offering a balance between ergonomic support and structural durability.
Can I use these on a standard flat-bar bike?
Absolutely, these are designed specifically for standard flat bars common on mountain, hybrid, and touring bikes.
Troubleshooting
Grip rotates or slips while riding
Ensure the handlebar surface is clean and free of grease before installation, then re-tighten the aluminum clamp.
Hands feel uncomfortable even with grips
Adjust the angle of the wing platform. Even a few degrees of rotation can significantly change how pressure is distributed.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly reduces palm pressure and numbness
- High-quality materials with durable construction

Cons
- Not suitable for aggressive downhill racing where hand repositioning is frequent

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward. Using a standard hex key, loosen the forged aluminum clamp, slide the grip onto your handlebar until it seats firmly, and then rotate the grip to your desired angle. Tighten the clamp until secure; do not overtighten beyond the manufacturer's suggested torque specs. These grips are compatible with standard mountain and touring handlebars. To maintain the grips, clean them with a soft cloth and mild soapy water as needed. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents that may degrade the rubber compound over time.
