Maximum Control - Ultimate Speed. The Ergon GDH Team proves how effective ergonomics can be for a downhill grip. Shape, texture, rubber compounds – every detail of the GDH Team has been developed to enhance control and speed. The Ergon design team worked closely with two-time Downhill World Champion Vali Höll, and pro riders Troy Brosnan and Fabien Barel to create the pinnacle of downhill-specific grips. All functional zones are 100% purpose-built for the demands of DH while delivering maximum hand relief. From the moment you grip it, you’ll get a locked-in feeling connecting you with your bike. The extra soft GravityControl Rubber compound is Made in Germany and SGS tested for harmful substances.

Features
Less Hand Fatigue. Less Arm Pump
The ergonomic shape of the GDH Team was designed in close collaboration with top gravity athletes to reduce hand fatigue and loss of control during demanding riding. It addresses arm pump, hand pain, and loss of strength in the hands and forearms caused by increased pressure in muscle tissue and fascia.
Multi-Directional Cushioning
The top surface of the grip features multi-level, multi-directional texture blocks that deliver optimal cushioning. The interlocking structure prevents the rubber from collapsing under pressure, providing soft yet resilient cushioning. The asymmetrical design places more rubber on the top of the grip for enhanced relief.
Finger Zones for Maximum Grip
Aggressive finger zones on the underside of the grip maximize handling in intense riding situations. The four individual finger zones are angled to match the hand and arm positions of the racer, ensuring a secure grip.
Lock In Your Hands
The integrated ergonomic outer stop provides a locked-in hand feel and positions the outer zones of the hand perfectly in changing trail conditions. The inner stop acts as a reference for the inner side of the hand, allowing precise shifting and braking. This ensures quick and accurate hand placement on the handlebars.
Extra-Soft Rubber Compound
The GravityControl rubber compound used in the GDH Team is the softest rubber compound Ergon has produced to date. It offers exceptional damping for a consistent feel and cushion.

Performance Through Experience
With insights from two-time Downhill World Champion Vali Höll, and pro racers Troy Brosnan and Fabien Barel, Ergon has refined the GDH Team grip over ten years of experience with the GE1 Evo, GD1 Evo, and GFR1 grip series. This experience culminates in a downhill grip designed for all ambitious racers, from weekend warriors to world champions.
Made in Germany
The GDH Team is "Made in Germany," ensuring top quality and sustainability throughout design, development, and production. Short production timelines and domestic sourcing of raw materials contribute to sustainable and virtually waste-free production.
Inner Locking
The GDH Team features a high-strength aluminum clamp that prevents twisting on both aluminum and carbon handlebars, ensuring rider safety and peace of mind.
Highest Material Quality
The GravityControl rubber compound used in the GDH Team is SGS-certified and free from harmful substances such as lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, PBBs, and PBDEs. It meets stringent EU toy quality standards, important for riders who ride without gloves.
Sturdy End Plugs
The GDH Team's replaceable end plugs are highly durable, providing extra protection to the grip ends during crashes.
