Product Details

Overview & Technology

SRAM Foam Locking Grips use an ultra-light straight foam compound to give riders a plush contact patch while keeping overall weight to a minimum. The grips are a double-locking style with a single clamp per grip for quick installation and reliable hold on 22.2mm MTB handlebars. The finish includes SRAM’s signature S logo end plugs and they carry SRAM Model ID AC-LCK-FM-A1 (Mfg P/N 00.7915.068.010). The foam construction is designed to damp vibration and increase comfort on longer rides without the bulk of thicker rubber grips. At just 82g for the pair, these grips are aimed at riders who want comfort and control while keeping their builds light and responsive.

Key Features & Benefits

These grips combine simple, proven lock-on technology with lightweight materials to deliver practical performance. The double-locking grip type prevents rotation and slippage under load, making them secure when sprinting, climbing out of the saddle, or railing turns. The single clamp per grip keeps the aesthetic clean and trims excess weight. Real-world benefits include improved bar feel and vibration absorption from the foam layer, reduced hand fatigue on long rides, and straightforward maintenance — wipe clean and re-seat if necessary. The low-profile design pairs well with narrow handlebars and compact cockpit setups common on XC and fast trail bikes.

Fit, Compatibility & Construction

Designed for standard MTB handlebars (22.2mm diameter), the SRAM Foam Locking Grips slide on quickly and lock securely with the included lock rings. The grips are not ergonomically shaped — they are straight foam grips intended for riders who prefer a minimal profile versus anatomical or palm-support shapes. Construction highlights: a straight foam sleeve bonded to a lock-on core, single clamp per side for secure attachment, and molded S-logo end plugs for a tidy finish. Shipping dimensions are compact (6.8" x 2.8" x 1.5") and the light weight (0.15 lb) makes them ideal for weight-conscious builds. Check your bar end diameter and brake/clutch lever positions to ensure standard fitment and clearance.

Who These Grips Are For

The SRAM Foam Locking Grips are aimed at cross-country and lightweight trail riders who want better vibration damping and a low-profile cockpit without added bulk. If you value weight savings and straightforward lock-on security over thick ergonomic shapes, these are a great pick. They also suit riders who frequently swap bars or stems — the lock-on system makes removal and installation fast and mess-free. Not recommended if you prefer heavily contoured grips, bar-ends, or need extra palm support for chronic hand numbness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these grips compatible with standard MTB handlebars?

Yes — the SRAM Foam Locking Grips are made for standard 22.2mm outer diameter mountain bike bars. They are lock-on style, so they slide on and are secured with the built-in clamp ring.

How durable is the foam material for trail use?

The foam offers good vibration damping and comfortable feel, but foam is naturally softer than dense rubber. With normal trail use it will perform well, but heavy, abrasive contact or frequent aggressive cleaning can accelerate wear compared with tougher rubber compounds.

Can I use these grips with gloves and wet conditions?

Yes — the foam texture provides a secure, grippy surface with or without gloves. Because foam can absorb a little surface moisture, they remain comfortable in wet conditions, though you should avoid saturated cleaning and dry them thoroughly if soaked.

What’s the easiest way to install and secure the grips?

Slide each grip onto the bar aligning it with levers and controls, then tighten the lock ring to secure. If you have a torque wrench, aim for a light, even clamp — many riders find 2–4 Nm sufficient. Always check for slippage after your first ride and retorque if needed.

Do the end plugs come included?

Yes — the grips ship with SRAM S-logo end plugs preinstalled, giving a finished look and protecting bar ends from damage.

Are these grips ergonomic or contoured?

No — these are straight foam grips (non-ergonomic). They favor a minimal profile for riders who prefer a uniform grip surface rather than shaped palm rests.

Buying Guide

When choosing MTB grips, decide between straight vs ergonomic shapes, soft vs dense compounds, and lock-on vs slip-on installation. Foam grips like SRAM’s Foam Locking offer excellent vibration damping and low weight — ideal for XC and fast trail bikes where comfort and saving grams matter more than heavy-duty abrasion resistance. For technical trail or enduro use, you may prioritize thicker, more durable rubber and aggressive textures. For lightweight, long-distance, or mixed-terrain riders who prefer a minimal profile, foam lock-on grips strike a strong balance: quick installation, reliable clamping, and a comfortable ride feel.
