Mountain Bike Australia Magazine and AMB and Australian Cyclist have reviews on the GP-1 grips. The truth is out there, so grab a copy, and get some of these grips and give them a try. Especially if you get sore hands or forearms or neck pain of any sort or are doing any longer rides or 24 hr races.
Most people are very happy with them indeed - do yourself a favour and finish off the bike building process with a decent pair of grips.. They are comfortable, last heaps longer than other lock-on grips, and Irina uses them - need any more reasons..
give us a call - 088 666 2222.
Irina won the World Cup at Stromlo! Well supported by Kim, Max, Alastair, Rich and Luca (team mascot). |

| The Ergon Philosophy |
| |
| Carbon monocoque frames, electronic gears and intelligent dampers. The technological developments in the bike industry are as fast paced as ever. In the quest to make the bikes still more enjoyable, more comfortable, effi cient or faster, manufacturers are concentrating on "Hardware Technology". However, will technology make the desired leaps possible? According to a study of the German Sports University in Cologne, more than 90% of those people taking part complained of aches and pains around their person when cycling. An important reason for this is poor ergonomics. Incorrect ergonomics on the bike can see discomfort turn into sharp pain and can signifi cantly spoil the enjoyment of cycling. In competition incorrect ergonomics can cost valuable energy and therefore places. Ergonomics is about putting the person as the focus, not the technology. For this reason, at Ergon, cyclists are at the centre of our search for the best connection between rider and bike. Bike ergonomics is extremely complicated and requires knowledge across different disciplines. For this reason the development team at Ergon is made up of specialists in different areas. There are bike experts, racers, sports scientists, ergonomics experts, engineers and industrial designers. Their aim is to develop products that offer the best ergonomics for cyclists, which combine the best scientifi c principles with practicality. The performance of Ergon products is tested in scientifi c laboratory studies, on the test rigs of the technical institutes and just as importantly with sweat and tears in everyday use or under race conditions. Cycling press editorials, international design award and the hardest race conditions in the world confi rm that Ergon are at the cutting edge. |

This girl is tough. Riding 24hrs solo is enough in its own right but she has her head in a good place and recovered from a bad tangle with a car to keep winning races. Loves the way her bike handles with her ergon grips so beware of the girl with the bright green GX2 carbons. She might be smiling but she is also pedalling very fast!
