[#6735906]

is there one?

I have used Ergon GP1/GS1/GX1 full anatomic grip on a flat bar commuter, with bar ends, for ages but I'm after a less extreme design, with more grippiness for my 29er.

I know Ergon do their GA1 which seems to fit the bill but it doesn't actually look that anatomic - is it?

Another option is the Spesh BG contour, which is less extreme than the Ergons, but the surface is quite smooth...

Any others that are:
a) grippy
b) not round?

Specialised Body Geometry? Slightly less extreme, I ran one for a while.

yeah, if they did a grippier version that would be fine. I may just take a file to a pair...

Got some GA1s on and they've got a nice feel to them. Don't know if they are truly ergonomic but ive not had any hand problems since I put em on

Could be different bars too tho - gone from 762 flat bars to 750 carbon with 30mm rise

+1 for the body geometry grips.

I run mine with [url= http://m.evanscycles.com/products/specialized/p2-overendz-bar-ends-ec046858 ]these bar-ends[/url] on my 29er

Btw - GA1s have 4 different thicknesses of rubber and internal cutouts to help form the shape. Meant to be installed properly to get em to work right
