Wolf Tooth Components has launched its Echo Lock-On Grips, made for MTB riding.
The rubber material is soft and tacky to the touch, while the alternating diagonal pattern of the grip keeps the rider’s hand in place with or without gloves in any conditions, the US-based brand said.
The grips are made with a black moulded rubber and come with anodised aluminium collars that match the eight primary colours of other Wolf Tooth anodised accent pieces.
Echo Lock-On Grips expand Wolf Tooth’s existing grip product line that includes seven types of silicone foam grips and two types of bar tape.
– 132mm long and 32mm diameter
– Compatible with standard 22.2mm mountain bike handlebars
– Bolt in collar is tightened/loosened via 3mm hex wrench
– All pieces are available as replacement parts via Wolf Tooth’s Right to Repair programme
– Includes: Two grips, two lock-on clamps, and two bar end plugs
Each component part of the grips is available as a spare part. This right to repair and spare parts stock adds lifetime practicality to the grips. The supplied end plugs allow for the Wolf Tooth Encase tool kits to be used also, adding to the practicality of the setup.
