Ergon GP1-S Evo grips - Black

Ergon has made the best wing grip of all time even better. The constant evolution of the GP1 is synonymous with maximum comfort for the hand, optimal pressure distribution, and the highest quality materials, free from harmful substances. With this Evo version of the award-winning original comfort, Ergon sets a new standard for ergonomic and pain-free cycling on touring and fitness bikes. For the first time, design, development, and production are "Made in Germany." This allows for an even more targeted and sustainable implementation of the commitment to offer the highest quality down to the smallest details on the shortest routes.

• No pain, no numbness - Hand discomfort while cycling is very common, especially on longer tours. With conventional grips, which are rather round or seemingly ergonomic, numbness of the fingers often occurs, along with pain and irritation in the palm of the hand and wrists. Discomfort in the forearms and upper arms, as well as in the neck and shoulders, can often be attributed to inadequate grips. Permanent misalignments can cause pain, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. With the iconic GP1, Ergon has helped millions of cyclists ride pain-free for over 20 years.
  
• Nerve relief - When cycling, a significant amount of body weight rests on the hands gripping the handlebars. This results in intense pressure on a small area of the grip. Often, the extremely sensitive ulnar nerve, which runs close to the skin surface in the area of the little finger's ball, gets compressed, causing annoying numbness. The wing shape of the GP1 Evo, which fits the hand perfectly, effectively distributes the strong point pressure over a larger area, thus avoiding discomfort.
  
• Ergonomic solution - When the wrist bends while pedaling, nerves, tendons, and blood vessels get compressed. This can lead to the narrowing of the carpal tunnel and potential damage to the median nerve. The ergonomic wing design of the GP1 Evo supports the wrist in a gentle and straight position. This effectively prevents problems such as painful wrists, finger numbness, tingling, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
  
• Two sizes for a customized control - To effectively distribute pressure on the handlebars and prevent discomfort, it is important that the hand does not completely enclose the grip. For this reason, Ergon offers the GP1 Evo in "Small" and "Large" sizes. The main difference lies in the width of the grip. In other words, a thicker grip offers a better fit for a larger hand, while a thinner grip is more advantageous for a smaller hand - also for safety, as the optimal shape ensures the best control of the bike.
