FAQs

Can I use these grips without gloves?

Yes, the Ultra Tacky compound is specifically designed to provide high levels of friction and comfort, making it a popular choice for riders who prefer riding gloveless.

Do these grips work in the mud?

Yes, they perform exceptionally well in wet and muddy conditions, though regular cleaning is recommended to ensure the compound stays tacky.

What is the diameter of these grips?

These grips feature an optimized 30mm outside diameter.

How long are the grips?

The overall width is 130mm, featuring a 110mm usable grip section.

Are the end caps replaceable?

The package includes snap-fit end caps designed to provide a secure finish; if lost, contact your local bike shop for standard 22.2mm compatible end plugs.

What should I avoid when cleaning these grips?

Avoid using petroleum-based solvents, degreasers, or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can permanently damage the sensitive tacky compound.

Troubleshooting

Grip feels slippery or loses tackiness

Wash the grips thoroughly with clean water and let them air dry completely to reactivate the surface coating.

Grip rotates slightly on the handlebar

Check that the aluminium locking collar bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specification using a hex key.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior levels of grip in both wet and dry conditions
  • Extremely secure lock-on mechanism eliminates grip rotation
  • Low-maintenance cleaning process to restore tackiness
  • Durable CNC machined aluminium collars
  • Balanced diameter suitable for most hand sizes

Cons

  • Tacky surface may attract more dust and dirt than standard rubber grips
  • Requires periodic washing to maintain the 'ultra-tacky' feel
  • Only available in one diameter size

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward due to the lock-on design. Slide the grips onto your handlebars and use a hex key to tighten the integrated 6082 T6 aluminium collars. Ensure the collars are flush against the bar for maximum security. These grips are compatible with standard 22.2mm diameter MTB handlebars. To care for your grips, avoid harsh chemical degreasers which may degrade the sticky compound. Stick to clean water and a soft cloth for cleaning. Always ensure the snap-fit end caps are securely pressed into place to prevent dirt from entering the grip core and to protect the handlebar ends during minor scrapes.
