Ritchey Logic's new WCS Gravel Grips adapt lightweight neoprene mountain bike grips to drop bars for more off-road comfort & control...

for off-road riding. No more double wrapping your drops for better vibration damping, just slide on some WCS Gravel Grips for more comfort and control in any conditions…Minimalist Ritchey Logic foam off-road Truegrips have long been a favorite of mountain bikers & weight weenies for their combination of lightweight, grip & comfort. And their neoprene foam version is known for even better grip in nasty slippery conditions and when your hands get super sweaty.

The new Gravel Grips were developed for short reach, shallow drop flared gravel & adventure drop bars where riders can spend long periods riding off-road in the drops for better control. With a cushy neoprene feel and smooth shape, they should eat up some of those small bumps while maintaining tacky grips so you don’t have to white knuckle down loose & rough technical gravel descents. Or you know… under biking mountain bike trails, as Tom Ritchey would do.

The new neoprene foam Ritchey WCS Gravel grips are available now for $15 / 15€ direct from RitcheyLogic.com or your local bike shop. Now we are just curious how long it will be until they drop an ultralight Superlogic version for gravel weight weenies…

Near Miss of the Day 847: Careless caravan close call causes cyclists concern'Needless to say, we turned back to the New Forest gravel paths as quickly as possible' If I hear that tell tale trailer sound bouncing along it puts me on alert. Normally towed by some oversized pickup ; then I think has he/she allowed for the fact the trailer is wider than said pickup…it’s generally a no (they’ve forgotten about it/don’t give 1) ..brown bibs time As good an example as any that shows why it can be safer NOT to ride in single file or ride in a very very weak secondary position. I absolutely understand why people choose to avoid the inevitable grief that they would be on the receiving end of, though.
