Ergon GP, GC, GR and GX grips prevent numb fingers, painful hands and forearms - problems that many riders face. The cause of this is high pressure on the particularly sensitive areas of the palm and an incorrect hand position.
Due to their anatomically optimal design, Ergon grips provide a contact surface of 100%. Regular grips only provide a contact surface of approximately 60%. With increased contact surface, pressure is especially reduced in the area of the ulna nerve, thus decreasing the likelihood of numbness. Furthermore, the anatomic form of the Ergon Performance and Race Series grips corrects your hand position. An incorrect hand position and overloading of the median nerve (a leading cause of carpal tunnel syndrome) are impossible as long as the grip is mounted correctly. |
