Pressure measurement grips

Round Grips

The extremely high pressure on the outside leads to irritation of the ulnar nerve. The consequences are pressure pain and numbness on the little finger and ring finger. The small surface area due to the circular shape, in combination with a very thin layer of rubber due to the clamping, results in massive pressure peaks.

SQlab Grips

The flat contact surface and the extra soft material on the outside reduce the pressure to a completely new level for MTB grips.

Comfort Grips

The pressure on the outside is still in the green area. The pressure at the site of the carpal tunnel exit is approximately 80 % of the highest pressure. Complaints of the carpal tunnel and carpal tunnel exit, especially after prolonged use over several months or years, are possible.

SQlab Comfort Grips

The pressure on the outside is in the green range. The pressure at the site of the carpal tunnel outlet is less than 40 % of the maximum pressure on the outside of the hand. Both nerves are sufficiently relieved.

Results

Overall, the pressure of the new 702 and 710 is distributed over a very large area. Accordingly, the maximum pressure is about 25 % lower than comparable ergonomic grips. At the point of the carpal tunnel exit the pressure at the 702 could be reduced to less than the half.
