Product Information
Full details
The Deity Knuckleduster Grips are designed for aggressive mountain bikers participating in All MTN, Enduro, DJ, Slopestyle, and Downhill disciplines who demand a balance of comfort and precision. By utilizing a proprietary TRC rubber compound and a secure, tapered inner sleeve design, these grips offer superior vibration damping and eliminate unwanted movement on the handlebar. While the ergonomic shape is highly praised for preventing fatigue, users should note that the 32mm diameter is a fixed medium-profile fit, which may not suit riders preferring ultra-thin or extra-chunky grip geometries.

FAQs
Are these grips compatible with carbon handlebars?
Yes, they are compatible with carbon bars, provided you do not exceed the handlebar manufacturer's recommended torque settings for clamp-on components.
What is the length of the Knuckleduster grips?
The grips measure 132mm in length.
Do I need special tools to install them?
You only need a standard hex key (typically 3mm) to tighten the forward-facing clamp bolt.
How do I know if the grips are the right size for me?
The grips have a 32mm outer diameter, which is considered a medium-profile grip. This is generally comfortable for most riders unless you have specific preferences for very thin or very thick grips.
Can these be used for road or gravel biking?
While designed for mountain biking, they can technically fit any standard flat-bar bike, though they are optimized for the grip requirements of aggressive MTB disciplines.
What does the TRC rubber compound do?
The TRC rubber compound is Deity's proprietary blend that balances a tacky, grippy texture with high durability to resist tearing and wear over time.
Troubleshooting
Grip feels loose or rotates on the handlebar
Ensure the grip is pushed all the way onto the handlebar until the inner sleeve is fully seated. Check the clamp bolt torque.
Bolt is stripped or difficult to tighten
Ensure you are using the correct size hex key (typically 3mm) and that it is fully inserted into the forward-facing bolt head before applying force.
Grip feels sticky or attracts too much dirt
Clean the grips with warm, soapy water and a soft-bristled brush to remove oils and debris that have settled into the rib pattern.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent vibration damping for harsh terrain
- Zero slippage thanks to the tapered sleeve fit
- Durable rubber compound resists premature wear
- Ergonomic design reduces hand fatigue during long rides
- Easy installation with secure single-bolt clamps
Cons
- Single fixed 32mm diameter may not suit every rider preference
- Requires proper alignment during installation
- Limited to standard diameter handlebars
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the single-clamp design. First, ensure your handlebars are clean and free of debris. Slide the grip onto the bar until the tapered inner sleeve seats flush against the bar end. Position the grip so that the half-waffle section aligns with your fingers, then tighten the 6061 T6 aluminum clamp bolts. Do not overtighten; follow standard torque specifications provided by your handlebar manufacturer to avoid damage to carbon bars. For care, clean the grips occasionally with warm water and mild soap to remove dirt and restore the tackiness of the TRC rubber compound. Avoid harsh chemical degreasers, which can degrade the rubber over time.
