ODI Elite Pro VS Ergon GE1 Factory

I love my ergon GE1 factory. Especially if you like to hold the. Ends of the bars while climbing.

Do you want round grips or a little bit of shaping?

Fwiw I also love my GE1s (albiet non-Factory).

This. I also ride with the outside of my palm at the end of the bars... so I cannot use grips with out clamps and I find the shaping of the GE1's really feels better against the outside of my palms.

GE1 slims for me - Used to ride the regular width until I broke my wrist and had to learn to ride with a brace. Brace forced a switch to Slims and now I love them.

I prefer round grips but a little bit of shape won't be a problem.

I tried the ODI but I put my hands on the very ends of the bars, so the outer lock ring doesn't work for me.

I've got GE1 EVO grips on my bike now and I like them a lot. I've got a set of factory ones coming in a couple of days to see how the softer factory rubber feels. So far these are my favorite grips.

Ergon GA2 Fat is what I had on before the GE1.

I havent tried the ODI ones so I cannot say anything about them but ive tried various other grips so far and the GE1 is what I currently run. I love them.

I have the ODI Elite Flow on my bike and I really like them. They’re not as thick as the pro. I also looked at the Ergon, but I read some reviews that said they take some time to get adjusted. I’m kind of lazy with that kind of stuff, so I went with the ODI. I also like that the ODI grips are made in the US. I don’t have anything against Germany. I just like to support US made when possible.

I have ODI elite pro on my full sus and GE1 on my fatbike. The ODI’s are more comfortable and have better grip for my hands. I don’t think you could go wrong with either grip.

I really like the ODI's.

I am also a little biased as they are made really close to where I live.

I've been a big fan of Ergon GE-1s. My hands feel the least fatigued compared to all other grips I've used (which, albeit, is a pretty small sample size), but the shape is so ergonomical and places your palms and wrists (and consequentially, your arms, eblows) naturally the right place.

Also...if you go with Ergon..they are side.specific (left and right), and you can "clock" them to your hands position which has a big impact on their comfort and control.
