Know before you buy
No, the GP1 Gripshift model is specifically designed for use with twist-style shifters. The right grip is shortened to accommodate the shifter mechanism, so it will not fit correctly on a bike with trigger shifters.
The Large size is recommended for riders with larger hands or those who prefer a thicker grip diameter for better support. If you typically wear a size L/XL glove, the Large size will likely provide the most comfortable fit.
Yes, the anatomical wing shape is designed to distribute pressure across the palm rather than focusing it on the sensitive ulnar nerve. This helps prevent numbness and fatigue by providing a larger surface area for your hands to rest on.
Installation is straightforward. You will need a 4mm hex key to tighten the integrated clamp, which ensures the grips stay securely in place without twisting during your ride.
They are excellent for cross-country and touring mountain biking where comfort and hand position are priorities. However, if you ride highly technical terrain that requires frequent hand repositioning, you may prefer a round grip over this ergonomic wing shape.
