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 pinches the extremely sensitive ulnar nerve that runs near the base of the palm near the pinky and close to the skin’s surface – often causing numbness. The wing grip increases the hand’s supporting area by distributing pressure over a wider surface and thereby preventing discomfort.
If your wrist is bent too much for too long, nerves, tendons and blood vessels are compressed. The result is the carpal tunnel channel is constricted, which could damage the median nerve. Long rides and fatigue make it even harder for the rider to maintain a correct and healthy posture. The wing design of our GP grips gives the hand more support and automatically puts the wrist into a more ergonomic position, preventing numbness, tingling and pain.
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 BioKork version of our successful GP series combines ergonomics, sustainability and a comfortable feel consisting of 40% cork material. The material comes from organic farming in Portugal and meets strict ecological guidelines. In the inner support, 20 percent of the plastic is replaced by grass fibres
Sustainability is high on the agenda at Ergon. Under the “GreenLab” initiative, packaging is developed from recycled materials, and entire products such as the GP3 BioKork are made from particularly environmentally friendly materials. All parts of the handle are consistently manufactured in an ecologically sustainable manner.
The GP Series clamping system is extremely secure and easy to mount. Each grip is tightened with only one bolt to reliably secure its position and to prevent twisting. Another important safety feature is that Ergon’s aluminum clamps are cold forged and not extruded – resulting in a much stronger structure. GP grip versions featuring lightweight barends – made of glass-fiber-composite and with grippy rubber inlays – deliver additional hand positions for more comfort.
Minimum friction – maximum comfort: Gripping confidence is enhanced with Ergon’s super soft, UV resistant, durable compound and specific texture patterns. Additionally, your riding enjoyment is elevated with a noticeable pleasing to the touch feel.
GP Series grips are also available in different versions that are compatible with various types of twist shifters. With standard trigger shifters, both grips have the same length on both sides. For Rohloff®, Nexus® and Single-Twist-Shift the grip is shortened on the right side to accommodate the shifting mechanism.
Indulge in an elevated cycling experience with the Ergon GP3 BioKork grip. Designed with ergonomic precision and sustainability at its core, this product guarantees to enhance your riding comfort while staying gentle on the environment.
Featuring innovative Biokork technology, the GP3 BioKork incredibly lightweight at 255 grams for the pair, attributing to cork's naturally low density. The poignant use of cork also provides an exceptional level of damping to absorb road or trail vibrations, ensuring a smoother ride and reducing hand fatigue.
Cork’s inherent antibacterial and hypoallergenic properties add an additional layer of comfort and safety for the riders, minimizing skin irritation during long journeys or intense rides.
Being faithful to its commitment towards ecological sustainability, Ergon has ensured that the 40% cork used in these grips comes from sustainably managed forests in Portugal, certified for their eco-friendly production methods. The core of the grip is fortified with nature-sourced plastic, accented with a natural fibre to enhance its strength and resilience.
The palm section of the grip is enriched with a gel that utilises vegetable oil as its base, as opposed to traditional mineral oil, signifying Ergon's dedicated 'GreenLab' initiative in environmental conservation.
Experience the perfect blend of ergonomic comfort, efficiency and ecological responsibility with the Ergon GP3 BioKork grip. It is not just a choice; it's a lifestyle upgrade.
