Ergon GC1 grips are designed specifically for use with swept-back handlebars.
Developed for bicycles using backwards-swept bars. These bars cause uncomfortable wrist kink, potentially causing discomfort. GC1 corrects the wrist angle as well as reducing pressure points and supporting the rider’s palm.
Why BioKork?
The unique qualities of cork means that it is antibacterial and hypoallergenic. Cork’s natural damping qualities also make it an ideal grip material, and its low density mean the resulting grip is a lot lighter. The bioKork grips use 40% cork, sourced from sustainable forests in Portugal which is certified for its ecologically sound production. This ecological theme is continued throughout the rest of the grip. The inner core is plastic reinforced using natural fibre, which make up 40% of its mass. in place of mineral oil, the gel in the palm section of the grip is vegetable oil based. it is all a result of Ergon’s “GreenLab” initiative.
