Loam Grips

The durometer rating measures the hardness of the rubber used in the grips. A lower number, like 25A, indicates a softer grip, which provides a comfortable feel and better shock absorption. Softer grips can enhance your riding experience by reducing hand fatigue, while still being durable enough for regular use.

The Lock On system features a secure attachment mechanism that prevents the grips from slipping or rotating on the handlebars. This ensures that you maintain full control of your bike, especially during intense rides or rough terrain, enhancing both safety and performance.

Yes! These grips are designed to fit standard handlebars with a grip end diameter of 22.2mm, which is the most common size in the biking industry. This means they will work with a wide range of mountain bikes and flat handlebars, making them a versatile choice for your bike.

Traction is crucial for maintaining a secure grip between your hands and the bike grips, especially in challenging conditions like loose dirt or rocky trails. Our grips are designed to enhance traction, helping to prevent slipping and allowing for better control and confidence while riding.

The inner lock ring is a key component that tightens the grip securely onto the handlebar. This feature ensures that the grip stays in place during rides, providing stability and comfort. A well-secured grip is essential for rider safety, particularly in rough or uneven terrain.

If you prefer a more cushioned feel and ride for longer periods, softer grips (lower durometer rating) may be ideal for you. Conversely, if you prioritize durability and a firmer grip, harder grips (higher durometer rating) might be better. Consider your riding style and comfort preferences when choosing the right grip for your bike.
