ERGON GC1 | Ergonomic Grips to Reduce Wrist Strain
Reduce hand numbness and fatigue for more comfortable long rides.
The ERGON GC1 is an ergonomically designed grip for touring and commuting.
By providing a wider contact surface than conventional cylindrical grips, it disperses pressure on the palm. This reduces strain on the ulnar nerve, providing a comfortable grip for long-distance rides and daily commutes.
Furthermore, a combination of a hard plastic core and multiple rubber compounds achieves both appropriate firmness and excellent vibration absorption. When combined with handlebars with a large back sweep, it maximizes its original performance.
This is a classic model recommended for riders who suffer from hand fatigue, whether for city riding, touring, or commuting to school or work.
