ERGON GXR CIRCULAR GRIPS (BLACK)

The GXR Circular embodies sustainability at its finest. It is made entirely of AirCell rubber, which we collected and recycled during colour changes or test runs in our regular GXR production line. With our GreenLab Circular project, we save materials, prioritise reuse, and lessen the load on the environment. And all of this comes with the verified GXR quality from Ergon: stripped down to the basics and precisely what cross-country riders and lightweight racers desire. The GXR Circular Grip is light, safe and grippy, absorbs all impacts and fits the hand ergonomically. Made from AirCell-Rubber, the GXR Circular is the first sustainable and truly ergonomic grip. It is manufactured in Germany using a unique process and is super light without clamping or an inner core. Ergon is defining another new chapter in MTB grips and the environment with this product. 100% made in Germany.

Grip production completely rethought

We founded the GreenLab sustainability initiative back in 2010. With GreenLab Circular, it has now evolved and focuses on material cycles, with recycling and waste reduction at the forefront of our mission.
                                                                                                                                         
Ergon will take back used GXR Circular grips
When your GXR Circular grips have reached the end of their lifespan, you can give them back to Ergon directly at specialist shops or events. If your local bicycle store needs help, just tell them to keep the returned grips and to pass them on to our sales representatives next time they visit. Afterwards, we will recycle them. 

                                                                                                                                       

Completely new manufacturing process
The Ergon GXR is 100% made in Germany. From development to the material to the production – the entire manufacturing process takes place in Germany. For the GXR, we have created a unique manufacturing process in Germany utilizing an expanded TÜV-certified Ergon rubber compound.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Aircell-Rubber is ergonomic: Micro air bubbles make the difference
The first time in a lightweight MTB grip, the GXR combines lightweight construction and ergonomics. Utilizing a new production process, Ergon AirCell-Rubber is formed into a grip that is both ergonomic and tuned to the demands of mountain biking. The high-quality and unique AirCell-Rubber, with its countless micro air bubbles, provide very high damping, offer a soft feel and reduce grip weight. Conventional foam grips are pressed and formed in a mold. This process significantly limits design. Ergonomic shaping is not possible or is it possible to coordinated surface texture zones for the functional areas of the hand. These shortcoming lead to earlier rider fatigue and poor bike handling. With the ergonomic GXR you have your race bike under control at all times.

                                                                                                                                

No clamp, no inner core
With no inner core or clamp, we have managed to reduce the weight to 90 grams (size Small, including end plugs). If you want to turn your cross-country bike into a lightweight race rocket without sacrificing grip, control and ergonomics, you can do it with the GXR.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
 
Special textures for every zone of the hand
In a MTB grip outstanding grip feel includes not only the ergonomic design but also surface textures. The surfaces of the GXR are adapted and tuned to the different areas of the hand. The GXR fits perfect in the hand when it comes to the fastest MTB mission.

                                                                                                                                                     
Extra grip at the fingertips
For extremely technical singletrack, 100% grip on the handlebar is required. The texture is aggressive on the GXR grips where the fingertips must grip firmly.
