SRAM SL80 Grips

These are heat-shrink grips, meaning you slide them onto your bars and apply heat—typically with a heat gun or hair dryer—to shrink the material until it conforms tightly to the surface. This creates a permanent, slip-free fit that won't twist or rotate while riding.

While they are designed for a race-ready, minimalist feel, they are versatile enough for both disciplines. However, because they are very thin and lack traditional padding, they are best suited for riders who prioritize direct handlebar feedback and weight savings over vibration damping.

The set includes four pieces of grip material. This is enough to cover both sides of your handlebars, allowing you to cut the material to your preferred length or double up if you need extra coverage.

Yes, but they are not reusable. Because the material shrinks to fit the bar, you will need to cut them off to remove them, so be sure of your placement before applying heat.

No, these are designed for a minimalist, tactile interface rather than comfort. If you are looking for vibration damping or thick padding, you may want to consider a traditional foam or rubber grip instead.
