The GP series is an ideal fix for common wrist pain when cycling. The GP4, in particular, offers an ergonomic way to relieve wrist pain with its pure rubber compound and multiple hand - position options. It comes with an easy - to - install clamping mechanism and is ergonomically designed to be back - friendly, though not suitable for carbon handlebars.
**Nerve Relief**: When you're riding, your hands bear a lot of upper - body weight on the handlebars, putting high pressure on a small grip area. This often pinches the sensitive ulnar nerve near the pinky, causing numbness. The wing grip spreads the pressure over a wider area, increasing the hand's support and preventing discomfort.
**Ergonomic Design**: If your wrist is bent too much for too long, nerves, tendons, and blood vessels get compressed, which may damage the median nerve. Long rides and fatigue make it tough to keep a healthy posture. The wing design of our GP grips supports the hand better and positions the wrist more ergonomically, preventing numbness, tingling, and pain.
**Two Sizes for Personalized Control**: To maintain perfect bike control, your hands shouldn't fully wrap around the grip. Ergon offers grips in two sizes - Small and Large. A larger hand fits better on a thicker grip, while a smaller hand suits a smaller one. We recommend Small for hand/glove sizes 6.5 to 8.5 and Large for 8.5 to 10.5.
**Exclusive German Quality**: The rubber in Ergon grips meets high - quality purity standards, is TÜV - certified, durable, and unique in cycling. It's made without filler and uses medical - grade white oil as the only plasticizer. The UV - resistant rubber is developed and manufactured in Germany, along with the ergonomics, design, and engineering.
**Safe and Secure**: The GP Series clamping system is very secure and easy to mount. Each grip is tightened with one bolt to prevent twisting. Ergon's cold - forged aluminum clamps are stronger. GP grips with lightweight barends made of glass - fiber - composite and grippy rubber inlays offer extra hand positions for more comfort.
**Comfortable Grip**: The super - soft, UV - resistant, long - life rubber compound with a specific surface texture provides a confident grip with minimum friction. It feels great to the touch, enhancing your riding pleasure.
**Technical Specifications**: Name - GP4; Use - Touring, E - Touring; Weight - 295 g* (S), 320 g* (L); Size - S, L; Color - Black / Grey; Variant - Regular. *Weights may vary in production. Weight per pair.
Using your Ergon GP4 - S grips is easy. First, choose the right size based on your hand/glove size. If it's between 6.5 and 8.5, go for the Small size. For sizes 8.5 to 10.5, the Large size is better. Then, install the grips on your handlebars. Use the single - bolt clamping system to tighten them securely, making sure they won't twist during your ride.
When riding, take advantage of the wing grip design. It spreads the pressure on your hands, reducing the chance of numb fingers and wrist pain. You can also use the lightweight barends for different hand positions to make your ride more comfortable.
Here are some important things to note. These grips are not suitable for carbon handlebars. Also, the weights mentioned are approximate and may vary in production.
To keep your grips in good condition, clean them regularly with a mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the rubber. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent UV damage to the rubber compound.
