The GP1 Evo is the new benchmark for hand comfort and support, elevating the original multi-award-winning comfort grip to the highest level of ergonomics and comfortable cycling.
Ergon has further optimized the comfort original in function, material, and workmanship, ensuring maximum quality down to the smallest detail. The new GP1 Evo prevents numb fingers, aching hands, and forearms. It also provides wrist support while protecting against possible carpal tunnel syndrome. This grip is free of harmful substances and exceeds strict EU quality standards with an SGS certification. The GP1 Evo Single Twist Shift variant has been specially developed for bicycles with twist shifters mounted on one side on the right. It includes a long grip on the left and a shortened grip on the right.
Hand diskomfort while cycling is common, especially on longer rides. With unsupportive conventional round grips, riders often experience numbness in the fingers, as well as pain and irritation in the palms and wrists. Discomfort in the forearms, upper arms, neck, and shoulders can also be attributed to unsuitable grips with poor support. While cycling, a significant percentage of a rider’s body weight rests on the hands, leading to high pressure on a small area of the grips. The wing shape of the GP1 Evo, which is scientifically adapted to the hand, effectively distributes pressure over a larger area, preventing diskomfort and protecting the extremely sensitive ulnar nerve.
Overly bent wrists while cycling results in nerves, tendons, and blood vessels being compressed. The ergonomic wing design of the GP1 Evo gently supports the wrist in an ergonomically optimized position, effectively alleviating wrist pain, soreness, and numb tingling fingers.
The unique LongLife rubber compound in the GP1 Evo exceeds European quality standards, is free of harmful substances, and has SGS certification. Two durometers of grip rubber provide the best damping and comfort. The inner core is instrumental in the performance and comfort of the GP1 Evo, providing security, dampening vibrations, and allowing the grip to sit comfortably in the hand. The inner core is made of plastic reinforced with fiberglass.
