Product Information

Full details

The Ergon GP2 Handlebar Grips are ideal for mountain bikers, commuters, and touring cyclists looking to reduce hand fatigue and improve control on long rides. By providing a wide, ergonomic support platform and adjustable bar ends, these grips effectively eliminate pressure points and numbness; however, they do require careful angular adjustment during installation to achieve the best anatomical fit for your specific hand position.

FAQs

Are these grips compatible with all handlebars?

They are designed for standard bicycle handlebars with a 22.2mm outer diameter at the grip area.

Can I use these with grip shifters?

The GP2 model is typically best suited for trigger shifters; if you use grip shifters, you may need a shorter version or a different Ergon model specifically designed for grip-shift compatibility.

How do I determine if I need Small or Large?

The size refers to the grip diameter; Small is generally recommended for those with smaller hands or who prefer a more tactile grip, while Large provides a fuller feel.

Are the bar ends replaceable?

While the bar ends are independently adjustable, they are part of the integrated grip unit and are not designed to be replaced separately.

Do I need special tools for installation?

A standard 4mm hex key is all that is required to secure the lock-on clamp.

Troubleshooting

Grip twists or moves while riding

Check that the internal locking bolt is tightened to the recommended torque; ensure the handlebar surface is clean and free of lubricant or debris.

Wrist pain persists after installation

The angle is likely set incorrectly; try tilting the wing platform slightly upward or downward to better support your palm and neutralize your wrist angle.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduces wrist numbness and hand fatigue
  • Independent bar end adjustment for personalized fit
  • Secure lock-on clamp prevents unwanted movement
  • Durable, weather-resistant materials for all-day comfort
  • Improves leverage and comfort during climbing

Cons

  • Requires time and patience to find the ideal ergonomic angle
  • Not intended for extreme gravity-focused mountain biking
  • Adds significant width to your handlebars

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, remove your old grips and ensure the handlebar end is clean. Slide the Ergon GP2 grips onto the bar until they reach the desired position, then tighten the clamp bolt using a 4mm hex key to the recommended torque specifications (typically 5-7 Nm). Once secure, adjust the angle of the wing and the bar end so that they align with your natural wrist position while seated on the bike. To care for these grips, wipe them periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents, as these can degrade the rubberized texture over time.
