Product Information
Full details
The OneUp Components Goldstone Lock-On Grips are designed for aggressive mountain bikers and downhill racers seeking professional-level control, long-term comfort, and extreme durability. Developed in collaboration with Jackson Goldstone, these grips offer superior vibration damping and fatigue reduction on technical terrain through advanced dual-durometer materials, though riders with smaller hands may find the 140mm length and specific palm shaping tailored more toward a standard-to-large grip preference.

FAQs
Are these grips compatible with carbon handlebars?
Yes, they are compatible with standard-diameter carbon handlebars, but ensure you do not exceed the recommended torque limits for your specific bar.
Can I use these on any mountain bike?
The grips fit all standard 22.2mm mountain bike handlebars.
How long are these grips?
The Goldstone grips are 140mm long, providing extra length compared to traditional 130mm grips.
Are the grips directional?
Yes, they are designed with specific finger ramps and a palm pad, so they must be installed with the pad facing the rider's palm.
What happens if the grip gets wet?
The 20A compound is designed to maintain high levels of traction even when wet, ensuring consistent control in rain or mud.
Do I need a special tool to install them?
You only need a standard 3mm or 4mm hex key (Allen wrench) to tighten the lock-on clamp.
Troubleshooting
Grip slips or rotates on the handlebar
Clean the handlebar surface to remove any oil or residue and ensure the clamp bolt is tightened to the recommended torque spec.
Grip feels loose on one side
Check that the bar end is pushed fully into the grip and the inner clamp is positioned flush against the handlebar end.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent vibration damping for reduced hand fatigue
- High-tack rubber compound provides confidence in wet weather
- Reinforced outer flange resists common crash damage
- Ergonomic palm pad effectively distributes pressure
- Extended 140mm length offers plenty of room for wide hand positions
Cons
- Specific palm pad contour may not suit every rider's preference
- Single-clamp design requires precise tightening to avoid movement
- May feel slightly bulky for riders with small hands
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Goldstone grips is straightforward. Ensure your handlebars are clean and free of grease or debris before sliding the grips on.
- Slide the grips onto the bars, ensuring the palm pad is oriented toward the back of the bike for optimal ergonomics.
- Tighten the single inner clamp bolt to the manufacturer's recommended torque setting, typically found on the clamp itself or the packaging.
- Do not overtighten, as this can damage the clamp or the bar material.
For care, wipe the grips down with a damp cloth after muddy rides to maintain the tackiness of the rubber. Avoid harsh chemical degreasers, as these can degrade the soft 20A rubber compound over time. If the grip surface becomes shiny due to dirt buildup, a soft-bristled brush with water can help restore the original texture.
