Frequently Asked Questions
Will Thrice 31 fit my standard mountain handlebars?
Yes — the Thrice 31 is designed for standard 22.2mm-diameter mountain bike handlebars. The tapered inner core creates a tight interference fit on alloy and carbon bars when the lock-on clamp is tightened to the recommended torque.
How should I install the single-locking clamp grips?
Slide the grip onto the bar (apply light rubbing alcohol if needed), align the grip ergonomically, then tighten the single clamp with the correct torque. Avoid over-tightening the clamp bolts—follow SDG's recommended torque to prevent stripping and to preserve bar finish.
Do these grips help with numbness or hand fatigue?
Yes — the dual-density construction, mushroom pads and Circular Iconic dampers are specifically designed to reduce vibration and pressure points. Riders commonly report less hand fatigue and fewer hotspots on long or rough rides compared with thin single-density grips.
Are Thrice 31 grips suitable for carbon bars?
They are compatible with carbon handlebars, but extra caution is advised when tightening the clamp. Use a torque wrench and adhere to SDG's torque specs to avoid damaging the bar. The tapered core helps maintain grip without requiring excessive clamp force.
What hand sizes are best for a 31mm grip?
A 31mm outer diameter suits riders who prefer a thicker contact area — often riders with medium to large hands or anyone seeking extra cushioning. Smaller-handed riders may find thinner grips better for precise bar control.
Can I run bar-end plugs with these grips?
Yes — the Thrice 31 accommodates standard bar-end plugs. Ensure any plugs you choose fit the inner bore after installation and don't interfere with the lock-on clamp.
Buying Guide
When choosing mountain bike grips, consider diameter, material and mounting style. Thicker grips (30mm+) offer more surface area and cushioning, which reduces hand fatigue on rough trails, while thinner grips improve bar feel and control for riders with smaller hands. Dual-density compounds combine the best of both worlds—soft outer layers for vibration damping and firmer cores for long-term durability. Lock-on grips like the Thrice 31 are preferred for trail and enduro use because they clamp securely to the bar, simplify installation, and prevent rotation under heavy braking. Match grip length to your handlebar setup and check compatibility with bar-end plugs and shifter/brake lever spacing before purchase.
