Thinner, lighter, faster. Reduced to the essentials, the Ergon GXR Team does exactly what cross-country riders and racers desire: absorb shock, offer a secure grip, extremely lightweight, and an ergonomic fit. The GXR Team is a further refinement of the first truly ergonomic lightweight grip made of AirCell Rubber, the GXR. The team version was developed and ridden by professionals on the World Cup circuit and is now available for everyone. The GXR Team is thinner, lighter and faster than the GXR.
- Use: All-Mountain / Trail, Cross-Country / Marathon
- Material: AirCell-Rubber – Made in Germany
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.
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 75 grams (including end plugs) 15 grams less then the normal GXR. 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 Team.
