Bicycle grips are the part of the handlebars that allow the cyclist to hold the handlebars comfortably whilst riding. Bicycle grips can be made of rubber, silicone, leather or other materials, and are generally designed to provide a non-slip, comfortable grip for the cyclist’s hands. It is important to choose bike grips that suit your hands and riding style, as poorly fitted grips can cause pain or numbness in the hands and wrists whilst riding.
