Nerve relief

When riding, your hands support a lot of your upper body weight on the handlebars, placing high pressure on a relatively small grip area. In many cases this puts too much pressure on the ulnar nerve that runs near the base of the palm near the pinky and close to the skin’s surface – often causing numbness. The winged grip increases the hand’s supporting area by distributing pressure over a wider surface and thereby preventing discomfort.

The position of the hand on the Ergon GS1 grip relieves the ulnar nerve.

Ergonomic solution

If your wrist is bent too much for too long, nerves, tendons and blood vessels can become compressed. The result is the carpal tunnel channel is constricted, which could cause damage the median nerve. Long rides and fatigue make it even harder for the rider to maintain a correct and healthy posture. The winged design of our GS grips gives the hand more support and automatically puts the wrist into a more ergonomic position, preventing numbness, tingling and pain.

Two sizes – for individualized control

In order to help you maintain perfect control over your bike, your hands should not completely envelop the grip, which is why Ergon offers many grips in two size diameters – Small and Large. The difference refers to the grip width (hand size), meaning a larger hand will have a more positive fit on a thicker grip, while a smaller hand is better fit to a smaller grip. For hand/glove sizes 6.5 to 8.5 we recommend Small, for 8.5 to 10.5 Large usually is better.

The GS1 is offered in Small and Large. For hand/glove sizes 6,5 – 8,5 we recommend the size Small, for 8,5 – 10,5 the size Large.

Texture Supportive structure

The specific rubber compound used in the GS series provides maximum comfort for long distance riding. The grips have just the right amount of flex and support ideally distributing the pressure across your hands. The grip’s texture ensures a very positive, confident grip, preventing your hands from slipping in demanding trail conditions.
