NS
Bikes - 2010 Martin Slim Grips
These signature grips have been
designed from the ground up together with our pro rider Martin Soderstrom to
meet his own specifications. NS single ply grips are made from soft kraton
rubber and they are more comfortable than most mtb lock-on grips. In fact,
these are BMX freestyle grips designed for mtb riders. Martin likes his grips a
little bit on the thinner side so he can ride them with gloves, but at the same
time, we wanted a classic proven mushroom style pattern for extra grip and
great feel for use without gloves. Finally, we found a way to deliver these
entire features in one product. The multi directional pattern was broken into
ribbed block sections that reinforce the pattern so it wears slower but still
provides same great grip. The result should please racers, dirt and street
riders. The flanges can be easily removed thanks to a distinct cutting line.
And the result will be a clean looking grip with a reinforcement on the inside
end.
A lot of effort was also put into choosing the best kind of bar-end. We decided
to use bolt-on plastic bar-ends with an elastomer inserts as this is the ONLY
solution that works with all kinds of handlebars- both steel and alloy. The
bar-end is our custom shape and features a molded NS logo. It’s thicker than
most stock solutions so it should last a little bit longer.
