Renthal Single Collar Lock-On Grips

Renthal Single Collar Lock-On Grips are designed to deliver reliable grip, long-term durability and precise control for demanding trail and gravity riding. The design centres around a single, inboard CNC-machined aluminium collar that clamps the grip firmly to the handlebar while keeping the outer edge soft and comfortable. Combined with advanced grip compounds and a full diamond pattern surface, these grips provide consistent traction, reduced hand fatigue and stable control in all riding conditions.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Aramid, Ultratacky and Ultrasoft compound options: Renthal offers three distinct rubber compounds engineered for different riding priorities. Aramid reinforced compound increases wear resistance for extended lifespan, Ultratacky compound provides higher surface grip for strong hand traction, and Ultrasoft compound maximises vibration damping and comfort. This range allows riders to select the grip feel, durability and traction level that best suits their riding style and conditions.
• Single, inboard CNC-machined aluminium collar: The grip uses a precision-machined aluminium clamp positioned on the inside edge of the handlebar. This keeps the outer end free from metal hardware while locking the grip securely in place. The result is a stable grip interface that prevents rotation under heavy braking, cornering and rough terrain.
• Collar permanently integrated into the grip body: The clamp is built directly into the grip rather than attached as a separate component. This removes weak connection points and improves structural strength. The outcome is greater long-term durability and a grip that remains secure even after repeated installation and hard use.
• Stainless steel screws with deep 3mm socket head: The clamp hardware uses corrosion-resistant stainless steel with a deep hex socket for stronger tool engagement. This design reduces the risk of rounding bolts and allows accurate torque when installing. The outcome is reliable clamping force and easier maintenance.
• Offset over-mould with increased palm cushioning: The grip body uses an offset mould design that places more soft compound under the rider’s palm. This improves pressure distribution across the contact area. The result is reduced hand fatigue and greater comfort on long or rough rides.
• Thinner over-mould under the fingers: Material thickness is reduced beneath the fingers to increase bar feedback and tactile control. This helps riders feel trail inputs more clearly through the handlebar. The outcome is more precise steering and improved grip control during technical riding.
• Internal soft material ribs for bar fit: Flexible ribs inside the grip body compress around the handlebar during installation. This creates a secure interface between the grip and bar surface. The result is reduced movement and improved stability even under high loads.
• Full diamond pattern surface texture: The grip surface uses a full diamond pattern that maintains traction in dry, wet and muddy conditions. The consistent texture allows the hand to maintain contact without slipping. The outcome is dependable control regardless of weather or terrain.
• Integrated hard plastic ‘R’ logo end-cap: A reinforced plastic end cap protects the end of the grip during crashes or bar strikes. This integrated design shields the softer grip compound from damage. The result is improved longevity and protection against trail impacts.

Secure grip control is essential for confident bike handling, especially on rough terrain or aggressive trails. The Renthal Single Collar Lock-On Grip design balances comfort and control by placing soft material where the hand applies pressure while keeping the finger area thinner for precise bar feedback. The integrated clamp construction ensures the grip stays firmly in place, while the compound options allow riders to choose the level of tack and softness that suits their riding style.

Renthal built these grips to provide dependable control and durability across a wide range of riding conditions. With a secure lock-on design, durable materials and a carefully engineered grip pattern, they offer a reliable upgrade for riders who demand consistent handlebar connection.
