Bike Yoke Grippy Lock On Grips – Orange

It’s a grip. OK, it’s a bicycle grip. We can’t and won’t say it is the best bicycle grip, because bicycle grips are a particularly personal thing.
Beit damping, thickness, length, texture, shape, … There are simply toomany boxes to tickto make a grip your favorite, there simply can’t be THE ONE, can there?
Well, we did tryto make a gripwith a lot of features that we hoped would takeaway with some of the things we particularly did not like with some of the grips out there.

• Honeycomb design

On some of your favorite grips, you may noticethat,in a matter of a few rides, you can see small parts of the rubber already get twisted/torn or sheared off. Some grips provideexcellent damping but the rubber may be too soft/squishy/sticky to be withstanding rough use over a longer period of time. For our Grippy we settledfor a surface structure that reminds of a honeycomb and combined it with a materialthat provides a very good feel and grip, yet it isstiff and sturdyenough,you can not twist the rubber, whichhelps keepwear as little as possible.

• Inner sleeve cutouts

For even more damping on the outside palm area, we designed cut-outs intothe inner Nylon supportsleeve, creating space for more rubber material all the way to the handlebar for more dampingand support of the critical outsidepalm area.

• Eccentric/offsetdesign

The Grippy, while featuring a circulardiameter is offset from the middle axis. Thinner grips usually allow for a firmer/better mechanical grip, thicker grips can give more damping and comfort. With the offset design, we created more damping where you need it – on the rearward facing side (palm side) of the grip towards the rider side -without increasing the overall diameter of the grip

• Integrated Endcap

One thing we found particularly annoying is, the that outer ends of some grips tear too easily due to lack of or only a little protection from improperly designed endcaps. Scraping a tree, going down, these things happen and we do not want the grip to get torn too easily, right? So the black, integratedendcap mainly has two functions: a) the slightly tapered shape gives you excellenttactilefeedback to feelwhere the grip ends and b) it gives solid protection against impacts.

Not really much more to say about a grip, eh?
