ERGON GD1 Evo Factory Handles

GD1 Evo – the Ergon Gravity Grips 2.0!
As a result of intense work with some Ergon-sponsored professionals at the MTB-Downhill World Cup, the previous GD1 Factory Mountain Bike Handle has been optimised and reborn as the new GD1 Evo Factory.

Like its successful predecessor, the GD1 Evo wins over with its special conical grip shape featuring increased cushioning on the outside and a smaller circumference on the inside. The outer profile with its redesigned, soft thumb area provides an even better grip while reducing the required gripping force. The newly-designed inner stop also makes it easier to find the right hand position and ensures full operation of the shifting lever. And thanks to the high-strength inner clamp made from aluminium, the Ergon GD1 stays firmly in place, resisting rotation. Due to the replaceable end caps, it is easy to get rid of any damages from impacts or falls.

A special feature of the GD1 Evo Factory is the singular Factory Custom Rubber compound, manufactured in Germany. It provides outstanding adhesion and rebound properties for even more comfort and control on the trail. The texture is soft and yet quite defined and precise, so as to generate optimal feedback from the ground.
