OneUp Components Expands its Lineup With New Goldstone Signature Grip
Weve known for quite a while that Jackson Goldstone is one of the fastest and most talented gravity racers in the world. Last year, the young Canadian confirmed that notion with five World Cup Downhill wins, earning him the title of the World Cup Overall Champ. Of course, when youre the best in the world, brands like to put your name on things, as we saw with Fox Racings Goldstone Signature Collection of apparel and accessories. Today, OneUp Components adds to that list with the launch of the brand-new Goldstone Grip.The new Goldstone Grip adds to OneUp Components growing collection of award-winning cockpit components and grips. Alongside the brands existing, and simply named Grips (30mm), Thick Grips (35mm), and Thin Grips (29mm), the Goldstone brings a more complex design developed by Jackson to provide maximum comfort and control while racing at the highest level.Goldstone Grip DetailsOneUp Components is headquartered in Jacksons hometown of Squamish, BC, which made it easy for him to meet and collaborate with the brands engineering team to design his signature grip. Given Jacksons obvious affinity for riding fast, his grip was designed to complement his riding style and preferences, and to provide the control needed to race and win at the highest level.Unlike the rest of OneUps grips, which are a consistent diameter/thickness, the Goldstone Grips have a variable thickness profile. They are thinner, 29mm, on the ends, thickening to 33mm in the center with the raised palm pad. This raised pad is intended to provide cushioning and fit comfortably under the palm. On the underside, raised and angled finger ribs fit under the knuckles and fingertips for traction and a locked-in grip.The grips feature a pronounced, larger-diameter outer flange that keeps the hands centered and from slipping off the grip. On the inside, the grip rises slightly to the inner edge and the single lock-on collar. Between the ends and the raised palm pad, Jackson chose a deep knurl texture along with the soft, tacky 20A rubber compound. The outer flange is made with a firmer 45A compound, which should help keep them from being damaged when crashing or just setting the bike down. When taken altogether, the Goldstone Grips sound like a recipe for maximum control, with comfort to boot.The features of the Goldstone Grip.SpecsLength: 140mmWeight: 108gBody Diameter: 29mm 33mmDurometer: Tacky 20A grip body with durable 45A outer flangeColors: White, Dark Green, Tan, Maroon, and BlackFeaturesSingle inner clampRaised palm pad38mm Diameter outer flangeFinger rampsKnurled grip bodyCore cutout under thumb (rubber runs straight to bar) for added comfort and dampingDual durometer constructionMaybe they wont make us all ride like Jackson, but it couldnt hurt to try OneUps new Goldstone Grips.OneUp Components Goldstone Grips: Pricing and AvailabilityIf you want to ride more like Jackson Goldstone, or at least try out his grips, you can do so now for the price of $29.99 USD / $36.99 CAD / 27.99 GBP / 29.99 EUR.
