Ergon GS1

The GS1 features an anatomically contoured shape that increases the surface area where your palm meets the grip. This design effectively distributes pressure, which helps prevent nerve compression and the numbness often caused by standard, narrow grips.

Installation is straightforward. The grips use integrated locking clamps that tighten securely onto your handlebars with a hex key, ensuring they stay in place without twisting or slipping while you ride.

No, the GS1 model does not include bar ends. If you require additional hand positions for climbing or leverage, you may want to look at Ergon's 'GP' series, which includes integrated bar ends.

While they are excellent for endurance and marathon mountain biking due to their lightweight construction and comfort, they are designed primarily for support rather than technical, gravity-focused riding. If you spend most of your time on rough, downhill trails, you might prefer a grip with more aggressive texture and a rounder profile.

The Large size weighs approximately 155 grams. Their lightweight construction is specifically optimized for endurance cyclists who want to minimize bike weight without sacrificing comfort.
