Product Information

Full details

Peaty's Monarch Pro Knurl Thin Mountain Bike Grips are engineered for aggressive trail riders who prioritize a precise, direct connection to their handlebars without sacrificing long-ride comfort. These performance-focused grips utilize a dual-compound design to maximize vibration damping while maintaining structural support, making them an ideal upgrade for those seeking improved hand control. While the thin diameter provides excellent feedback for technical maneuvering, riders who prefer a substantial, cushiony feel in their palms may find the slim profile less forgiving on extremely rough, sustained descents.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these grips suitable for all-day riding?

Yes, the dual-compound design with a 15a soft rubber upper provides excellent vibration damping for long days in the saddle.

Can I use these on carbon handlebars?

Yes, these grips are safe for use on carbon bars, but always observe the torque specifications provided by your handlebar manufacturer when tightening the locking clamp.

What does the 15a and 30a rating mean?

These are Shore hardness ratings; 15a is very soft for comfort and grip, while 30a is firmer to provide a supportive base for the grip structure.

How do I clean the knurled pattern?

Use a soft-bristled brush and mild dish soap to gently remove dirt from the pattern, then air dry.

Do these come with bar end plugs?

The locking clamp system and grip design are integrated to keep the bar end secure.

What is the purpose of the Pinky ramp?

The Pinky ramp is an ergonomic feature on the outer flange that provides an extra surface for your hand to rest against, preventing slippage during high-speed, aggressive maneuvers.

Troubleshooting

Grip rotation or slipping

Ensure the handlebar surface is clean and free of grease before installation, then re-tighten the 8mm locking clamp to the recommended torque.

Difficulty sliding onto the handlebar

Ensure there are no burrs on the end of your handlebar metal and confirm the grip orientation matches the taper of the core.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent trail feel thanks to the thin diameter
  • Dual-compound rubber balances comfort and durability
  • Environmentally conscious design using recycled materials
  • Secure locking clamp prevents rotation
  • Pinky ramp adds security during aggressive descents

Cons

  • Thin diameter may not suit riders preferring extra cushion
  • Requires precise installation to align the flange
  • Limited color options compared to wider grip models

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward as these grips are compatible with all standard 22.2mm mountain bike handlebars. To install, slide the grip onto the bar, position the half-flange to your preference, and tighten the 8mm locking clamp using a standard hex key. Do not overtighten the clamp to avoid stripping the fastener.

For care, wipe the grips down with a damp cloth after muddy rides. Avoid using harsh chemical degreasers, as these can degrade the 15a soft-compound rubber over time. If the grips become covered in excessive trail grime, a soft-bristled brush and mild soapy water will safely restore the knurled texture.
