Good purchase and great quality for the price.

- Ronald, 19 October, 2022

With a little water and some patience they slid slowly but easily over the handlebars. Bought these because I found the original specialized grips on my bike too hard and was looking for a little more comfort. Now I am a little disappointed by how much more comfortable these grips are but at least they are better than the original grips. The grip is definitely very good!

Great Grips.

- Arjan, 12 October, 2022

The ESI grips are fantastic. Normally I had a lot of cramp and tingling in my hands, but this was completely gone with ESI MTB grips. Lots of cushioning. Takes some getting used to for the first few meters but after that you go like a rocket over the mtb trail.

Harder through corners

Perfect MTB grips with lots of grip

- Emiel, 4 July, 2022

These MTB grips were easy to install. Splash of isopropyl alcohol in and they slide right on. Let them dry and they are firmly in place. They give great grip both in dry weather and rain.

5 / 5

Really great handlebar grips, highly recommended; disassembly is difficult.

- Matthias, 29 June, 2022

These handlebar grips are excellently processed, sit firmly on the handlebar after mounting, are very grippy and comfortable, even if you sweat - I know no better material for handlebar grips. These grips must be mounted with alcohol as a lubricant - here you have to work very quickly and deliberately, so they do not get stuck halfway. Disassembly can also only succeed with alcohol or soapy water as a lubricant - but it is very difficult to get these lubricants flat under the well adhering grips, and the probability that the grips are damaged or destroyed in the process is high.

Pros & Cons

High quality
Made in USA
Very good handlebar grips
Mostly not to remove intact

- Adam, 3 June, 2022

A no-brainer for the true mountain biker

- Vince, 20 January, 2022

As a mountain biker, you already have a lot to endure. Therefore, I personally prefer a product that ensures that my body can last a bit longer than standard grips. These ESI grips are really a must when it comes to XC / Trails riding. It largely absorbs the many impacts on your body. Moreover, you enjoy the rest moments in between a lot better. If I can recommend anything, it's these.

Ergonomic
Light
Shock absorption

- Pedro, 31 August, 2021

Simple but this is it, tried everything in terms of grips both ergo and other types, either they felt hard or too slippery ( prefer to ride summers Without gloves) . Now I put these on and I like them, good grip and good looks, the only thing is that I think they might be a bit too thin in the palm, so next set will be extra chunky.
