Giant GNT Tactal Pro Single Lock-On Grip – 135mm – Black
The Giant GNT Tactal Pro grips are single lock-on grips designed for off-road and hybrid riding where control, comfort, and durability all matter. Instead of relying on one texture, these grips use three distinct surface patterns to manage vibration, grip feel, and wear across different hand contact zones.
Riders choose the Tactal Pro when they want a secure lock-on grip that feels compliant in the hands without being overly soft or bulky. The textured zones help maintain control in varied conditions while keeping the grip predictable over long rides.

Compatibility & Use Notes
• Designed for off-road and hybrid handlebars

• Not intended for drop bars or BMX handlebars
Service / Ownership Context
Single lock-on grips rely on proper clamp torque to stay secure without damaging the bar. On carbon handlebars, careful tightening is especially important. Compared to double lock-on designs, single-clamp grips offer a cleaner outer edge but may not resist twisting as strongly under extreme downhill or bike park use.
Fit & Use Signals
• A good fit for riders seeking a balanced grip for trail or hybrid riding
• Commonly chosen for comfort-focused off-road bikes
• Works well for riders who prefer defined textures over soft foam grips
• Not ideal for heavy downhill or bike park riding
• Not the right choice for road or drop-bar bikes
