Product Information
Full details
The SDG Thrice Lock-On Grip is designed for mountain bikers and trail riders who prioritize long-ride comfort and vibration dampening. By utilizing a soft, gel-based TPE compound and an ergonomic ovalized profile, these grips excel at reducing hand fatigue and numbness; however, riders who prefer a firm, high-feedback grip may find the softer compound slightly less responsive during aggressive technical maneuvers.

FAQs
Are these grips compatible with carbon handlebars?
Yes, the lock-on mechanism is safe for carbon bars, provided you do not overtighten the clamp.
Do these come in different thicknesses?
While the design is standard, some variants like the 31mm version are available if you prefer a thicker grip diameter.
Can I reuse these grips if I change my handlebars?
Yes, because they utilize a bolt-on clamp system, they can be removed and reinstalled easily without needing solvent or glue.
How do I know which side is left or right?
These grips are generally symmetrical, but ensure the clamp hardware is facing inward toward the center of the bike.
Are they suitable for gloveless riding?
The soft TPE material is comfortable for gloveless riding, though most mountain bikers still prefer gloves for protection against trail debris.
What tools are required for installation?
You only need a 3mm hex (Allen) key to secure the locking clamp.
Troubleshooting
Grip twists or moves on the bar
Verify the clamp bolt is tightened to the recommended torque and ensure the handlebar surface was clean and dry before installation.
Hands feel numb during long rides
Check the orientation of the grip. The ergonomic oval shape and ramped grabbers must be positioned to support the palm properly.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent vibration dampening for reduced fatigue
- Secure non-slip fit due to lock-on design
- Ergonomic oval shape improves hand positioning
- Lightweight construction via tapered core
Cons
- Softer compound may wear faster than hard-rubber alternatives
- Oval shape requires specific orientation for best results
- May feel too cushioned for riders seeking maximum trail feedback
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the SDG Thrice Lock-On Grips, ensure your handlebars are clean and free of debris. Slide the grips onto the bar until they reach your desired position, then use a standard 3mm hex key to tighten the integrated clamp bolt until secure; do not overtighten to avoid stripping the hardware. These grips are compatible with standard 22.2mm diameter mountain bike handlebars. For care, clean the TPE surface periodically with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Avoid using harsh chemical degreasers, as these can break down the gel compound over time. If the grips become saturated after a wet ride, ensure they are air-dried completely away from direct high-heat sources to maintain the integrity of the material.
