During these 18 months, we talked to over 1000 people to understand their grip preferences, tested countless grips, and even set up our own in-house 3D printing and moulding workshop to quickly test and refine the smallest... moredetails through hundreds of hours of testing. The result is an exclusive grip design, featuring an offset and tapered core, a tapered grip profile, a supersoft 20A compound, a slim 8mm clamp (for maximum grip), a unique zigzag thumb pressure relief pad, high-grip finger troughs (cut inwards and not outwards - this is important!), two texture options, and two thickness options.

| Peaty´s Monarch Mushroom Thick GripsThe Monarch Grip is a descendant of decades of hanging onto handlebars like our lives depended on it. Because sometimes they really did.We´ve tested countless different compound and grip pattern combinations, tweaking and testing over and over again in search of a single ultimate grip. And if you know us, you'll know we sweated every detail, from p... moreerformance to sustainability.So grab a brew and nerd out on the design deep dive below that we think makes our Monarch grips the new Kings of Control.Thick:- People come in all shapes and sizes—and so do their hands—so having a one-size-fits-all approach to grip diameter is almost as crazy as offering a one-size-fits-all glove.- While the thick grip has a 32mm diameter on the inside and 34mm on the outside. This not only makes the thick grip an ideal diameter for people with larger hands but also provides an extra 2mm of impact-damping rubber compared to the thin grip.Comfort thumb pad:- Your thumb is the only part of your hand that grips the rear side of the grip. This means every rock, drop, root, or rail can result in a small impact and rub between your thumb and the grip, which can lead to hot spots and blisters on the inside of your thumb (particularly around the metacarpal bone/knuckle). Our comfort thumb pad extends further out from the grip diameter to provide more support and cushioning to your thumb, helping to reduce the risk of blisters. Cornering forces naturally cause your thumb to shift left and right, which causes the straight fins of a mushroom texture to collapse side to side. Enter the Zigzag! Like corrugation in a tin roof, adding corners to a mushroom fin creates additional support. The tighter the zigzag, the more solid the thumb pad becomes. Rest assured, we've agonized over the angles and measurements of our thumb pad texture to give you the best thumb support and cushioning possible.High grip finger bars:- Cutting into the diameter of the grip rubber, our high grip finger bars offer maximum grip and minimum distraction. Optimally spaced for different hand sizes and finger lengths, each finger bar is sliced into blocks, allowing each to float independently to meet the needs of your fingers. We´ve obsessed over the details on these bars, to find just the right balance of feel, depth, and grip. The inward cut bars work alongside the offset core to reduce the depth of rubber on the underside as much as possible. This provides you with a much more positive feel direct to the bar with your fingertips when pulling up.Tapered Diameter & Core:- A tapered grip means that its diameter increases from the inside to the outside of the grip. This taper helps to create a more natural gripping angle by supporting your palm and reducing pressure on long rides. The taper in the rubber also results in a thinner section of rubber on the inside of the grip (for more bar feel) and a thicker section of rubber on the outside of the grip (for more impact cushioning). This taper also works with the BikeinnDelivery: in United Kingdom Report | £19.99 | | |

| Peatys Monarch Grips - Mushroom PT-PGM-MSH-THK-BLK“Trail Comfort” Mushroom Texture The mushroom texture gets its title by looking like the classic fins on the underside of a mushroom. Used for decades on bmx grips for its ability to absorb impacts. Each fin of a mushroom texture is evenly spaced with a gap the same width as the fin. This is important so that the fin can be compressed by the hand a... morend flex into the space next to it. This provides a much more comfortable, compliant, shock absorbing texture compared to a knurl texture. The user of this grip could be anyone from a trail cruiser looking for maximum comfort through to big hitters looking to take the sting out of hideous rock gardens and flat landings. The monarch grip is a descendant of decades of experience of hanging on for dear life and an 18 month design development process. Over those 18 months we’ve surveyed over 1,000 people for their grip preferences and pet hates, tested countless grips and even set up our own internal 3d printing and casting workshop to rapidly test and refine the finest details through hundreds of hours of testing - down to the very last 0.25mm - seriously! The result is a grip design with an offset and tapered core, tapered grip profile, soft 20a compound, slim 8mm clamp (for max grip area), unique zigzag pressure relief thumb pad, high grip finger bars (cut inwards not outwards - this is important!), two texture options and two thickness options. Phew!All Cardboard PackagingMonarch grips are packaged onto an all cardboard backing board (okay apart from the metal rivets!) With paper pulp plugs instead of the single-use plastic ones typically used. The grips can be rotated upwards by a potential customer while on the packaging to provide an accurate demonstration of how the grips will feel when fitted to the bars.Thin Vs. ThickPeople come in all shapes and sizes - and so do their hands - so having a one size fits all approach to grip diameter is almost as crazy as offering a one size fits all glove. Our thin grip has 30mm diameter on the inside and 32mm on the outside and thick grip 32mm on the inside, 34mm outside. This not only makes the thick grip an ideal diameter for people with larger hands but also an extra 2mm of impact dampening rubber compared to the thin. Your ideal grip size depends on your riding style, trail conditions. Hand size, and whether you wear gloves or not so it can be as much personal preference as a science when selecting which is right for you. As a general rule people with bigger hands (xl glove size upwards) should opt for a thicker grip however, some aggressive riders (even ones with massive hands) may prefer a thin grip to achieve better bar feel and precise control. Conversely people with smaller hands, who might otherwise be best suited to a thinner grip, may prefer the comfort and fatigue reduction of thick grips over ultimate control.Tapered DiameterA tapered grip means that its diameter increases from the inside to the outside of the grip.

| Peatys Products Peaty's Monarch Mushroom Lock On Grip - BlackLET THEM REIGN, OVER YOUR TERRAIN Forged through years of descending, Monarch grips deliver the ultimate in precision and comfort. Trail Comfort Mushroom Texture Inspired by BMX grips, the mushroom texture features flexible fins that compress into adjacent gaps, offering superior comfort and shock absorption compared to knurl textures. Ideal for tr... moreail cruisers and riders tackling rough rock gardens or flat landings, this texture ensures a compliant, impact-damping grip for maximum comfort. Thin vs. Thick Grips Riders hands vary, so grip size is key. Our thin grips measure 30-32mm, while thick grips measure 32-34mm, offering extra damping for larger hands. Grip choice depends on riding style, trail conditions, hand size, and whether you wear gloves. Larger hands (XL glove size and up) typically prefer thicker grips, though aggressive riders may favor thinner options for enhanced bar feel. Likewise, smaller hands may opt for thick grips for added comfort on long rides. Tapered Diameter for Natural Grip The grips diameter increases from the inside to the outside, creating a natural angle that reduces palm pressure. This design allows thinner rubber on the inside for bar feel and thicker rubber on the outside for impact cushioning. Paired with the offset core, this design maximizes comfort while maintaining control. Comfort Thumb Pad Your thumb bears significant pressure while riding, often causing discomfort or blisters. Our extended thumb pad reduces friction and provides added cushioning, especially at the metacarpal knuckle. Carefully positioned, it suits all hand sizes and riding styles, whether you grip close to the inside or outside of the grip. Zigzag Texture for Stability Straight mushroom fins can collapse under pressure, leading to discomfort and reduced stability. Our zigzag pattern adds structural support, eliminating distracting clicking sensations and ensuring optimal cushioning. This thoughtful design enhances thumb comfort and durability.
