The original. Just better.
We took everything we learned from making and riding the original Deathgrip and created the Deathgrip2. Having spent years refining grip design with Brendan Fairclough, Olly Wilkins and the DMR Team, along with riders from around the world at all levels, we knew we were on to a winning formula. We kept the features that riders know and love, and added some fundamental improvements along the way.
The DMR Deathgrip2 features the grip pattern and layout that inspired a whole generation of mountain bike grips – it starts with a soft mushroom section for comfort in the thumb and forefinger area, preventing blisters in a soft-tissue zone. Next, the grip pattern features diamond knurl for grip in all conditions and all terrains – and the waffle layout underside holds your fingers in the perfect position for grip and control. A tapered core means the Deathgrip is firmly mounted onto your handlebars with ease and the use of just one lockring keeps things simple and tight. The krayton rubber grip compounds we use are soft and comfortable, yet durable and lightweight. Select thin or thick diameters, and with or without flanges – the choice is yours.
We took the winning features of the Deathgrip, and then added:
Deathgrip2s are designed for optimal grip, comfort and control whether you ride with or without gloves. They’re the perfect choice for every rider – for weekend thrashers, dedicated freeriders, or whether you race Hardlines, World Cups, or ride Rampages. Deathgrip2s are the grip of choice for everyone.
Once you've ridden Deathgrip2s, you won't go back. Ride the best, forget the rest.
