Ergon GDH Team Grips

While engineered for the demands of gravity and downhill riding, the GDH Team Grips are excellent for enduro and aggressive trail riding as well. Their focus on reducing arm pump and fatigue makes them a great choice for any rider spending long days on technical, rough terrain.

Yes, the integrated lock-on mechanism is fully compatible with both carbon and aluminum handlebars. You can install them securely without worrying about damaging your carbon bar surface.

The 32mm diameter is considered a medium-to-thick profile, which is generally preferred for gravity riding as it provides more surface area to dampen vibration and reduce hand fatigue. If you have smaller hands or prefer a very thin grip for maximum tactile feedback, you might find these slightly substantial.

Yes, the GravityControl rubber compound is specifically formulated to maintain a tacky, locked-in feel even when wet. The tread pattern is designed to channel away moisture and mud, ensuring your hands stay planted on the bars during sloppy conditions.

Installation is straightforward. Because they use a lock-on mechanism, you simply slide them onto the handlebar and tighten the integrated clamp with a standard hex key. No glue or hairspray is required, and they won't twist or slip once tightened.
