The GS1 Evo redefines what ergonomic comfort can be for bikepacking, trail, endurance, fitness, and E-Bikes by minimizing aching hands and numb fingers.
Ergon took the best-selling GP1 winged grip and evolved it with popular characteristics of the off-road specific GA3. The GS1 Evo features a larger supportive wing than the GA3 and a sleeker profile than the GP1, a specific textured grip zone for the thumb, fingers, and palm, and a softer overall touch. Prioritizing materials, the GS1 Evo is composed of a proprietary rubber compound made in Germany. From quick jaunts across town to endurance events to journeys across continents, the GS1 Evo is a new favorite among many riders.
Ergon once again sets a benchmark in ergonomic grip design with the GS1 Evo. Cyclists can look forward to an ergonomic grip with a high-performance wing. Pressures on the hand are distributed evenly and the wrists are supported, protecting the sensitive ulnar nerve. Numb fingers and aching hands are a thing of the past. If the wrists are bent too much while cycling, the carpal tunnel can be pinched off, resulting in a burning pain in the hand or forearm. The GS1 Evo fully supports the wrists. The flexible wing, which is perfectly adapted to the hand, ensures a form fit between the hand and the grip. Hand and wrist pressures are distributed evenly over the wing, relieving the carpal tunnel and preventing pain.
Thumb, fingers, palm: these three hand zones allow you to grip and control your bike while riding. The GS1 Evo has special textures for each of these areas, adapted to the ergonomics of the hand for control and safety. The GS1 Evo has been optimized in its design and features a completely new rubber compound for sporty touring and fitness rides. The GS1 Evo also has a slightly smaller shape than the best-selling GP1, making it ideal for dynamic riding.
The TÜV-certified, toxin-free, medical-grade rubber compound found in the new GS1 Evo is unique for bicycle grips. The rubber compound has the highest quality standards and meets the German toy and food safety standards. This is very important for riders who like to ride without gloves and have continuous direct skin contact with the grips. The UV-stable rubber compound is developed and and manufactured exclusively for Ergon in Germany.
Thanks to the high-quality aluminum inboard clamp, you can adjust the wing angle of the GS1 Evo to the perfect position. A single clamp bolt allows for easy installation and a twist-proof ride. In addition, the inboard clamp allows the rider to comfortably grab further out on the outside of the handlebars.
