Ergon GP3 Evo MTB Handtag

The Ergon GP3 Evo Grips are the perfect solution for the many riders who experience pain in the joints while cycling. It is particularly the regular Evo version (rather than the cork version) that offers ergonomically comfortable grips for pain relief thanks to its softer material.

Further advantages of the Ergon GP3 Evo grips are the pure rubber composition, the easy-to-install clamping mechanism, the approved back-friendly ergonomics and the compatibility with carbon handlebars.

The material used in Ergon's grips meets the highest quality standards, is TÜV-certified, durable and absolutely unique in the whole range of bike grips. The UV-resistant rubber compound was developed and produced in Germany exclusively for Ergon. Thus, the Ergon grips bring together ergonomics, product design and cutting-edge technology.

Strain relief
When you cycle, your hands support much of your upper body weight on the handlebars, which puts high pressure on a relatively small area. In many cases, this causes pinching of the extremely sensitive ulnar nerve that runs along the base of the palm, near the little finger and close to the surface of the skin; this, then, may cause numbness in the hand. The wing shape of the grips increases the support section of the hand by distributing the pressure over a wider area, thereby preventing discomfort.

Ergonomic solution
If your wrist is bent too long and too much, its nerves, tendons and blood vessels are compressed, resulting in a narrowing of the carpal tunnel canal, which may damage the median nerve. Long rides and fatigue make it even more difficult for the rider to maintain a correct and healthy sitting position. The wing design of Ergon's GP grips gives the hand more support and automatically brings the wrist into a more ergonomic upright position, preventing numbness, tingling and pain.
