FAQs

What makes these grips 'Greg Minnaar Signature'?

These grips were designed in collaboration with legendary downhill racer Greg Minnaar, incorporating his feedback for optimal performance, grip, and comfort tailored to aggressive riding.

Are these grips suitable for all types of riding?

Yes, they are designed for a wide range of mountain biking disciplines, including downhill, enduro, and trail riding, due to their excellent grip and vibration dampening.

How do I know if the 31.5mm diameter is right for me?

The 31.5mm diameter offers a good balance of comfort and control for most riders. If you have particularly small hands, you might prefer a slimmer grip. If you experience significant hand fatigue, a slightly larger diameter might help.

What is the 25A rubber compound?

25A refers to the Shore durometer hardness rating of the rubber. A lower number like 25A indicates a very soft and pliable compound, which maximizes grip and vibration absorption.

How durable is the 7075 aluminum collar?

7075 aluminum is a high-strength alloy known for its durability and resistance to corrosion, making it an excellent choice for the lock-on mechanism.

Can I use these grips with carbon handlebars?

Yes, they are compatible with both aluminum and carbon handlebars. Be sure to use a torque wrench and adhere to the recommended torque specifications for your handlebars and the grip's lock-on collars to avoid damage.

Troubleshooting

Grips are slipping on the handlebar

Ensure the lock-on collar bolt is sufficiently tightened. Check that the handlebar is clean and free of grease or dirt before installation.

Grips feel sticky or degraded

This can happen with prolonged exposure to certain chemicals or extreme heat. Clean with mild soap and water and allow to dry. If the issue persists, the rubber may have degraded and replacement might be necessary.

Difficulty sliding grips onto the handlebar

Ensure the handlebar is clean and free of any debris. A small amount of isopropyl alcohol can be used as a temporary lubricant, which will evaporate quickly, but avoid silicone-based lubricants.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional grip in all weather conditions
  • Noticeable vibration dampening for increased comfort
  • Comfortable feel due to the tapered core and diameter
  • Durable construction with high-quality aluminum and stainless steel components
  • Secure lock-on design prevents unwanted grip rotation

Cons

  • The super soft rubber compound may show wear more quickly with intense use compared to harder compounds.
  • The 31.5mm diameter might feel too thick for riders with very small hands.
  • As a premium product, the price point may be higher than basic grip options.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Bartender Pro grips use a lock-on system. To install, slide the grip onto the handlebar, ensuring it is positioned correctly. Use the provided 7075 aluminum collar and stainless steel bolt to secure the grip. Tighten the bolt evenly until the grip is firmly in place and does not rotate. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the collar or handlebar.

Compatibility: These grips are designed to fit standard 22.2mm mountain bike handlebars. The 31.5mm outer diameter is suitable for most riders.

Care: To clean your grips, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before riding. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, as these can degrade the rubber compound and affect grip performance.
