Strengths: I purchased these to replace the standard grips that came with my cannondale, which were making my hands go numb after an hour.
Picked the GE-1 over the GP-1 because I wanted a more versatile grip that would be a good compromise between comfort on long rides, and maneuverability for jumps and tricks.
So far so good! The grip has held up impeccably after three months.
Installation was easy. Slipped these onto Easton Monkeylite XC handlebars without a problem, and the clamp keeps them from slipping. No numbness in the hands even after several 3-4 hour rides.Weaknesses: I think they're a bit overpriced, but after lots of research I settled on these and am happy thus far.Bottom Line: Great grips that do the job. Comfortable, solid and versatile for any kind of rider.
They're a bit pricey, but you won't find grips of this quality any cheaper.
4 chilis for value because I think 30 bucks for grips is outrageous.

Strengths: great gripiness, comfortable. lots of room, good stops.Weaknesses: installation is TOUGHBottom Line: the bontrager grips that came on my hi-fi sucked so i decided to get some new grips, i usually use salsa's but no one in the area had any so i decided to try the ergons. so far the only complaint is installation. the usual method of soapy water and heat didn't work so i decided to go medieval, i used a rubber mallot, which worked fine (and yes, my are the right diameter), i just have no idea how i'm going to get them back off. after i get them installed they are great, they feel great, they grip great. they take up alot of bar space (i got the large) but thats fine as it gives me lots of room to move around. i'm looking forward to seeing if anyone else has any of the installation problems i did. i would recommend them to anyone thats on the trails alot and alot meaning for more than a causal weekend ride of an hour on the local rails to trails.
