key features
Get to grips with our handles.
Essentially, durometer is a measure of hardness. The lower the number, the softer the material.
Keep an eye out for this in the "specs" section.
Some models are available in our Supa Soft compound which measures at 9a.
Our grips have 3 distinct clamp styles;
single, double & none.
You may or may not have strong feelings about which style to run.
Our grips are available in a wide range of colours to suit your style and match the rest of your bike.
(Even if your style is all black everything.)
Grip FAQ's
Almost certainly! Our grips will fit on any bar with a 22.22mm diameter (where the grips sit).
All MTB bars (and most others) are 22.22mm.
You can! Find them here.
Generally speaking, the softer the grip (lower durometer number), the quicker it will wear out.
To mount non-lock-on grips, we recommend placing some cable ties (approximately five) inside the grip with the clasp at the outer edge of the grips. Slide the grips on - the zip ties should allow a smooth and easy installation. Once the end of the grip is flush with the end of the bar, use pliers to pull the zip ties out, one at a time, from the grips. Voila!
Compressed air is also an option.
You can read the full user guide here, but the main points are:
• Follow handlebar torque specs.
• Make sure the grips are on all the way, especially for single clamp models. Lightly tap with a mallet if unsure.
• Never use hammer-in style bar end plugs in carbon bars.
As one of three touch points connecting you to your bike, the choice of grips matters as it influences how secure and comfortable you feel as you barrel...
Customers praised these bike grips as "the most reliable, grippy, comfortable" available. Reviewers highlighted excellent hand fatigue reduction, with one saying "the bulge makes a HUGE difference." The grips perform well in demanding conditions and "don't stretch gloves." Some noted reduced mud-clearing ability when wet.
I have tried more company's grips than I can count and these are hands down the most reliable, grippy, comfortable grips I have ever owned. I just put a new set on before landing on the podium in an enduro race on super loose and rocky terrain and was so thankful for how securely attached to the bike my hands were. Thank you Chromag - you guys rock!!
Great quality as usual
Tacky, soft and comfortable
Love the colour, goes nicely with my bike and the grips are super solid! Even with sweaty hands I feel locked in.
Color is similar to the one in the picture and the grips are of good quality.
I love these grips on all my bikes. I feel like the centre bulge fits the natural gap in my closed palm and provide some needed cushioning. The colors make it even cooler.
Best grips
Love these -- on my 2nd pair
I was gifted a clapped out pair of squarewave XL grips in 2019. They were fantastic. I've since tried a couple of other companies grips and went back to the squarewave XL when they came back in stock after the shortage. The closest local trail to me is a rough and very fast 4 mile (2x) Enduro stage decent where the bulge makes a HUGE difference in hand fatigue.
Tried ergon, Meaty paws, and oury grips between pairs of Squarewave XL.
Since I started using the basis grip I can't go back to any others (other than the clutch grip on my dj bike). I saw an improvement in the amount I could ride before getting tired hands when I started using these and the grip is top notch with or without gloves.
I purchased these grips from my bike shop and i striped the screw. I contacted them and within a short time he emailed me back and shipped the new screw. He even asked me when they got to my house. Amazing grips and customer service
I struggle a lot with hand pain while riding (especially in the middle of Whistler summer on the bike park brake bumps) and have tried many different grips. The Squarewave are the best grips that I've tried so far in helping me deal with this problem. Good grip and ergo fit. Seem to last well as well.
Best grips I've used. The slight budge fixed my comfort issues.
PROS: Easy To Install, Lightweight, Attractive Design
BEST USES: Racing, Upgrade, Mountain Biking, Casual Riding
Was looking for a set of grips with metal ends, as I tend to fall while mountain biking and shred the ends of my grips. Not the softest or stickiest, but my primary motivation for purchasing was for the metal ends.
works awsome and they look sick. would totally buy them again!
The Good: comfortable, good for smaller hands, wear slow
The Bad: Don't clear mud very well
Overall Review:
I've had been using these on BZA for a full season before trying something else.
Quick description of my hand anatomy: I have big palms and short fingers. My hands fit them very well and are comfortable on long days with and without gloves. One of the highlights is that they don't stretch the palms of my gloves. My hands are oddly shaped but my mitts still wrap around these well. I used them for a pretty full season and they looked fairly good at the end of the year too. My only knock is that they don't clear mud well. They gets slick once saturated.
The Good: Solid lock-ons, Excellent dampening, Durable, and Unique ergonomic shape
The Bad: Outside squares started coming off after a year of riding (pretty much expected though).
I’ve been stoked on the Chromag Squarewave grips. They offer excellent grip and dampening, the ergonomic shape feels very natural, and they held up very well. If you are the type of rider that wants exceptional performance out of their grips without having to replace them 2 times a season, the Chromag Squarewaves are for you. I’ve been quite pleased with mine and I feel you will feel the same.
