Ergon GE1 Grip

The GE1 features a specifically contoured, ergonomic shape that encourages a more natural hand and wrist position. This design helps distribute pressure more evenly across your palms, which is particularly effective at reducing fatigue during longer rides.

While the slim profile is designed to provide a more direct, tactile feel of the handlebars, it is generally preferred by riders who want a precise connection to the bike. If you have very large hands and prefer a bulky, cushioned feel, you might find these slightly too thin.

These grips are constructed from a combination of Kraton rubber and aluminum. The Kraton provides a tacky, long-lasting grip surface, while the aluminum clamp ensures the grip stays securely locked in place without twisting, even under aggressive riding conditions.

Yes, the GE1 grips are compatible with carbon handlebars. Because they use a locking clamp mechanism, you can secure them firmly without needing to over-tighten, which is crucial for protecting carbon components.

The ergonomic shape is specifically engineered to support the hand in a neutral position, which helps alleviate the pressure on the ulnar nerve that often causes numbness. While they are a significant improvement over basic grips, ensure your cockpit setup—like brake lever angle—is also adjusted correctly for the best results.
