No bending - no tingling
Bending the wrist compresses nerves, tendons and blood vessels. As a result, the carpal tunnel narrows and can damage the median nerve. Longer bike rides with increasing fatigue make a healthy posture more difficult. The wing design of the GP grips supports the hand, automatically brings the wrist into an ergonomically ideal position and prevents numbness, tingling and pain.
Gentle on the nerves
When cycling, the hands support a large part of the upper body weight on the handlebars. This creates high pressure on the small grip surface. This often pinches the very sensitive ulnar nerve, which runs in the area of the ball of the little finger close to the surface of the skin. This can lead to numbness. The wing grip increases the contact surface of the hand, distributes the pressure over a larger area and prevents discomfort.
Thick and thin for optimum control
So that you always have your bike under control, your hand should not completely enclose the grip. Ergon offers many grips, including the GP5, in the sizes "Small" and "Large". The difference relates to the grip width. This means that a larger hand has a better form fit on a thicker grip, while a thinner grip is best for a smaller hand. We recommend the Small size for hand (shoe) sizes 6.5-8.5 and the Large size for 8.5-10.5.
Tested back-friendly: Healthy Back Campaign
Back pain is the number one widespread ailment, which can quickly spoil the fun of cycling in particular. In a lengthy testing process by an interdisciplinary panel of experts, consisting of doctors, orthopaedists and physiotherapists, the back-friendly effect of the GP5 handle was officially confirmed with the AGR seal of approval from "Aktion Gesunder Rücken" (Campaign for Healthier Backs).
