Just bought my second set of Ergon Grips for my new bike, I sold the last bike with them on, and regretted it as soon as I started to ride my new steed.

I bought the first set when I took part at the Merida in Selkirk, was not too sure if they would be any good, but the chaps selling them offered a refund at the end of the ride if you were not satisfied. I kept mine!

So its a good upgrade if you are looking for new grips.

I got the same deal at the Merida in Ruthin, I was unsure about having less control but they were the best, especially when you're riding for 6 hours+.
I did the Selkirk one as well by the way, it was the best days riding I've ever done. I did the full Enduro (First full one)and it was just amazing riding can't wait for the next one :-)

They look like something my mum would put on her hercules bike.

I know its shallow and not very pc but they should be renamed spaz grips imo.

igmc :-/

I can't see how they would work properly. What about when you need to lift the front wheel up? Do you do it by jedi mind power?

pmsl, use the force jase, use the force!!!

I am pretty sure its a concept that has been around for ages but it was restricted to shop-mobility mobiles, now its gone hardcore/mainstream ;-)

Why would you not be able to lift the front wheel up?
They fit perfectly into your palm...
They're simply more comfortable and prevent numbness in the hands when you're in the saddle all day.
I use them for all types of riding with no less control.

Nope... they're still sh*t.

Whatever Dweeb...

Uses mind manipulation to tell Karlos what i think of him now that he is a Jedi ;-)

I also like Pasties.

About 3hr50min.

Mind trick?

They are the tops, as for lifting the front wheel, pedel harder!

'Pedal' even.

got them at Ruthin, great on cross country, crap on man made stuff like Llandegla actually end up doing the opposite.

I'm sure they're very good but they do look like something Joey Deacon should be using!
