Mountain bike legend Richie Schley and enduro racer Rachel Throop discuss the new SMA3 Enduro saddle and GE1 Grips.
The new Ergon SMA3 saddle is based off the previous enduro model, but Ergon redesigned it to be more comfortable. It is also built with an anti-friction coating to allow riders to move around without catching on the saddle.
Also new is the GE1 slim grip, which was developed in part with input from Rachel Throop. Like the standard GE1, the grips have an ergonomic form factor, and are super tacky.

The inner construction varies in thickness to allow greater damping. The inboard clamp allows even more grip area at the end of the bars, and is completely secure and carbon bar friendly.

Ergon GE1 and GE1 Slim Enduro Series
The GE1 is specially developed for Enduro mountain biking. Handlebars are wide, and gripped right at the end, while the riders elbows are kept bent. This position dictates the construction of the grip, and in turn the grip itself is able to prevent typical issues of tension in the arm and hand. With two rubber compounds, there are textured zones orientated against the direction of rotation of the hand. The grip also takes advantage of a lightweight high quality aluminium clamp, securing the damping optimized inner core and the whole grip. Everything optimized for the intended use.
