Grips

The durometer rating of 20A indicates that the grips are relatively soft, providing a comfortable feel while riding. Softer grips can absorb more vibrations and reduce hand fatigue, making them ideal for longer rides or rough terrains. If you prefer a cushioned grip that enhances comfort, a lower durometer rating like 20A is a great choice.

Lock-on grips are designed to securely attach to your handlebars, preventing them from slipping or rotating during use. The single-sided locking mechanism makes installation straightforward and ensures that the grip stays in place, enhancing your safety and performance while riding. This means you can focus on your ride without worrying about your grips moving around.

Arm pump refers to the fatigue and swelling of the forearm muscles that can occur during intense biking. This condition can lead to discomfort and decreased control over your bike. Our grips are specifically designed to reduce arm pump by providing better cushioning and support, allowing you to ride longer and more comfortably without the strain on your arms.

A tacky compound is a material that has a sticky or grippy texture, which enhances the connection between your hands and the grips. This feature improves traction, allowing you to maintain a secure hold without having to grip tightly. This not only increases comfort but also helps prevent hand fatigue, making your rides more enjoyable.

The diamond knurled texture on the grips creates small raised patterns that provide additional grip and traction. This design helps prevent slipping, especially in challenging conditions like wet or muddy trails. With better grip performance, you can ride with more confidence and control, ensuring a safer and more enjoyable biking experience.

Absolutely! The right grips can significantly impact your comfort, control, and overall performance while biking. Features like durometer rating, tacky compounds, and textured surfaces all contribute to how well you can handle your bike. Choosing grips that suit your riding style and preferences can lead to a more enjoyable and efficient ride.
