Intended use
The different models of the SQlab comfort and performance grips have been developed according to their characteristics for the various
functional ranges of touring, everyday, city, trekking and MTB cycling and have been correspondingly tested in numerous laboratory trials
and many kilometres of cycling. Using an improper grip may result in cycling errors, falls and accidents.
When describing the intended use, we follow the international categorisation ASTM F2043-13, which precisely describes the different
functional ranges.
