VeloErgogel D3 Grip - Grey

Bought as I have updated my old straight bar MTB with hybrid risers to use for the daily commute, I did not want to spend lots of money on the refurb as the bike has done a few miles and I did not want to end up spending more than a new bike on parts.I don't intend to wear bike gloves every time I ride so wanted a pair of comfy grips for bare hands.Fitted on the bar without a problem, they look and feel fine. This is the first time I have tried this style of ergonomically shaped grip, the design has a flared form towards the ends that seem to fit the palm. Different from what I have been used to in the past but so far no complaints. I don't have any type of suspension on the bike but the grips seem to take some of the shock out of the bars.Not sure how people with smaller hands would find them, the grips are not huge but they are a good handful, especially when keeping fingers on the brake levers. That said, they are fine for my longish digits.

great replacement grips, tapped on easily ( with a bit of spit ) and not moved a bit since. very comfortable to hold the shape is just spot on in terms of keeping the wrists in a more natural position. great value for the price, only down side is that once the wife tried them I hade to buy her some too.

Very good value & a quality product. They have to be very precisely positioned (rotated) so that they fit your hand well but then are very comfortable . This was difficult to achieve as they are very tight fitting. I used a soap solution to aid getting them on the handlebars which worked well but it dried out quite quickly making them very difficult to adjust afterwards. Very pleased with this item.

I'm doing an old road bike up to carry on using it for work so I don't puncture my good bike to death and smash the carbon fibre rims biking through the local pot-holed industrial estate.Needed some new handlebar grips and liked the look of these ones.Delivered nicely boxed with fitting instructions on the back of the box. These are 135mm long and supplied with black plastic press in tube ends. They're really well made and are very comfortable indeed whilst riding. Brilliant, love em! But OMG I nearly bust a gut trying to get the buggers on! Tight isn't the word. I felt like I'd been ten rounds with Mike Tyson by the time they were fully on. I must be getting old :(The instructions say spray the inside of the grips with glue/adhesive before fitting - don't! Just try them first, trust me. I defy anybody to pull mine off they're like the sword in the stone, they ain't coming off, ever!Really well made, comfortable bike grips which I can highly recommend.

I've had these on the bike for a couple of months now, and I wish I'd changed them sooner.Although I did struggle a bit to get them on (and, in fact, one is still a bit more 'on' than the other), they feel very reliable under your hands. Comfortable too. I'd buy them again.

These have significantly improved my wrist comfort on the bike. I have small hands and they are a bit thick for my grip so, when they die, I'll replace them with something higher end that comes in different sizes. But, for the money, they're excellent.Fitting them was a nightmare as they're a very tight friction grip. Water with a splash of washing up liquid did the trick and helped me slide them on but it was far from quick and easy. I'm pretty sure I'll end up having to hack them off when the time comes.

Really good. I fitted mine at a slight angle, not sure that this is the correct way to fit but I’ve been out a couple of times now for over an hour each time and they seem fine. I used WD 40 to clean my bars before fitting and sprayed some into the grips to ease the fit. They just slid on with little effort. As WD 40 evaporates there was no sliding once fitted. They are fitted as if I’d used super glue. No movement whatsoever.

I've used these on a few bikes and they're far more comfortable than the stock grips often supplied with most bikes. They take a while to install; use a few drops of washing up liquid in a cup of water to aid in sliding them on.
