Product Information
Full details
The DMR Grid Grips in Grey are designed for adult cyclists seeking enhanced comfort and control on their mountain or trail bikes. Their key benefit lies in the soft Kraton rubber and classic mushroom design, providing a comfortable and secure grip. A potential caveat is that they are designed for compatibility with specific DMR pedals and bar plugs for a full colour match, which may limit standalone colour coordination with other brands.

FAQs
What material are the DMR Grid Grips made from?
They are made from a single density, soft Kraton rubber.
What is the length and diameter of these grips?

Troubleshooting
Grips feel loose or spin on the handlebar.
The grips may not have been installed correctly or the lubricant used has not fully dried. Remove the grip, clean the handlebar and inside of the grip, and reinstall using hairspray or a grip-specific adhesive. Ensure it dries completely before riding.
Difficulty sliding grips onto the handlebar.
Use a small amount of isopropyl alcohol, grip glue, or strong hairspray on the handlebar to help the grip slide on. Ensure the handlebar is clean and free of grease.
Tacky or sticky feel after installation.
This can happen if the wrong type of lubricant was used or if it hasn't dried properly. Try cleaning the exterior of the grip with a damp cloth and allowing it to air dry thoroughly. Avoid using oily substances on the exterior.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent comfort due to soft Kraton rubber.
- Good grip and control, especially with the waffle pattern.
- Classic, ergonomic mushroom design.
- Durable construction for regular use.
- Aesthetically pleasing when matched with other DMR components.
Cons
- Colour matching is optimized for specific DMR products, potentially limiting cross-brand coordination.
- Single density may not suit riders who prefer a firmer grip.
- Flanges, while helpful for grip, might interfere with some hand positions for certain riders.
- May require specific installation tools or techniques for a secure fit.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your handlebar ends are clean and free of any old grip residue.
- Apply a small amount of grip-specific lubricant or strong hairspray to the *inside* of the grip or the handlebar to aid installation.
- Carefully slide the grip onto the handlebar, twisting gently if needed, until it is fully seated.
- Allow any lubricant to dry completely before riding to ensure a secure fit. If using hairspray, it will harden to create a tight bond.
Compatibility:
- Designed to fit standard 22.2mm diameter handlebars, common on most mountain bikes and many other bicycle types.
- Optimized for colour coordination with DMR V6 and V11 pedals, and DMR bar plugs (sold separately).
Care:
- Clean the grips periodically with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can degrade the rubber.
- Ensure the grips are dry before use, especially after cleaning.
