Descendant Grips

Lock-on grips are specially designed handlebar grips that securely attach to your bike's handlebars using a clamp mechanism. Unlike traditional grips that can slide or twist, lock-on grips stay firmly in place, providing better control and stability during rides. This is especially crucial in mountain biking, where navigating rough terrain requires a reliable grip.

A single-ring clamp features one circular clamp that secures the grip to the handlebar, allowing for a wider area for your hands to grip. This design enhances comfort and control while riding. In contrast, a double-ring clamp uses two clamps for added security, but may limit hand positioning. Choosing between them depends on your preference for comfort versus security.

The rubber compound refers to the specific blend of materials that make up the grips. Different compounds can affect the softness, durability, and grip of the handles. Our grips start off firm for durability but become softer over time, enhancing comfort and grip as you ride. This means you can enjoy a better riding experience as the grips adapt to your hands.

MTB stands for mountain biking, a sport that involves riding on rough, off-road terrain. MTB grips are designed specifically for this purpose, providing better control and comfort. They help you maintain a secure hold on the handlebars, allowing you to navigate challenging trails and obstacles with confidence.

A reactive ride feel refers to the feedback you receive from the bike through the grips while riding. Grips that offer a reactive ride feel allow you to sense the terrain better, enabling quick adjustments for improved control and balance. This is particularly important in mountain biking, where conditions can change rapidly, and having that feedback can enhance your overall riding experience.

Lock-on grips enhance your biking performance by providing a secure and comfortable grip, reducing hand fatigue, and improving control over the bike. With features like a single-ring clamp and a responsive rubber compound, these grips allow you to focus on the ride without worrying about your hands slipping, ultimately leading to a more enjoyable and efficient biking experience.
