Product Information
Full details
The Renthal Lock-On Grips are engineered for mountain bikers seeking a balance between long-term durability and high-performance tactile feedback. Utilizing an innovative Kevlar-infused compound, these grips offer a tacky, comfortable feel that resists wear over thousands of miles, making them ideal for aggressive trail and enduro riders. While they provide exceptional control, users should note that the 30mm diameter is a fixed medium profile which may not suit riders preferring ultra-thin or extra-thick grip options.

FAQs
What is the diameter of these grips?
The Renthal Lock-On Grips have an optimized outer diameter of 30mm.
Are these grips suitable for all mountain biking disciplines?
Yes, their durable Kevlar-infused construction makes them well-suited for everything from XC racing to aggressive enduro and downhill riding.
Do I need special tools to install them?
You will need a standard metric hex key (typically 2.5mm or 3mm) to tighten the locking collar bolts.
How long should these grips last?
The Kevlar-infused compound is specifically designed to provide superior wear resistance compared to standard rubber grips, offering a much longer service life.
Will these fit on carbon handlebars?
Yes, the lock-on system is compatible with both alloy and carbon handlebars, provided you do not over-torque the locking bolts.
Troubleshooting
Grip rotates or slips during use
Check that the aluminium locking collar bolts are tightened sufficiently. Ensure the handlebar surface is clean and free of grease or oil.
End caps keep falling out
Verify that no dirt is trapped inside the grip end. Re-insert the snap-fit cap, ensuring it is pushed in fully until it seats firmly against the inner core.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Renthal Lock-On Grips is straightforward. Ensure your handlebar ends are clean and free of debris or old adhesive residue before sliding the grips on. Once positioned to your preference, use a hex key to tighten the 6082 T6 aluminium bolts until secure. Do not over-torque these bolts to avoid stripping the aluminium.
For care, wipe the grips down with a damp cloth after muddy rides to remove grit that can accelerate wear on the diamond knurl pattern. Avoid using harsh chemical degreasers, as these can potentially dry out the rubber compound over time. The included snap-fit end caps should be inserted firmly until you hear a click, protecting the end of the grip and the handlebar from impact damage.
