Ergon GS1 Evo

The GS1 Evo features an anatomically optimized shape that increases the surface area where your palm rests. By spreading your weight across a wider platform, it reduces pressure on the ulnar nerve, which is the primary cause of numbness during longer rides.

While the GS1 Evo is designed for comfort and control, it is best suited for cross-country, touring, and commuting. If you frequently ride highly technical, steep, or downhill terrain where you need to shift your hand position constantly, you might prefer a round grip that allows for more dynamic movement.

No, the GS1 Evo model does not include integrated bar ends. It is a standard grip design focused on palm support and vibration damping.

Yes, the GS1 Evo is designed to fit standard bicycle handlebars with a 22.2mm diameter, which is the industry standard for almost all mountain, hybrid, and commuter bikes.

Ergon's sizing is based on your glove size or hand circumference. The 'L' size is generally recommended for riders who wear a size large or extra-large glove, as it provides a thicker diameter that fills the hand better for those with larger palms.
