ODI Reflex XL V2.1 Lock-On Grips

Product Overview

The ODI Reflex XL V2.1 Lock-On Grips are large-diameter handlebar grips designed for riders who prefer more grip volume. Developed through multi-year testing with UCI Downhill World Cup and EWS riders, these grips use a medium-compound rubber formula and zone-specific design to reduce arm pump and improve control during extended riding sessions. The XL version features a 34.5mm diameter—larger than standard grips—while maintaining the performance features of the standard Reflex V2.1.

Key Features

• 34.5mm Extra-Large Diameter – Increased grip volume suits riders with larger hands or those who prefer more cushioning and hand contact area
• Medium Compound Proprietary Rubber – Balances durability with impact dampening to reduce hand fatigue and arm pump over long rides or rough terrain
• Zone-Specific Grip Design – Each section engineered for specific function: soft flexible ribs at the thumb area absorb impacts, padded top section enhances shock absorption, angled waffle pattern matches natural finger position for improved control
• V2.1 Single-Clamp Lock-On System – Uses one clamp instead of two, freeing up more usable grip surface and reducing bar space occupied by hardware
• Reinforced Ends – Durable construction at grip ends resists tearing from crashes or bar contact
• Angled Waffle Pattern with Oversized Top Rib – Tread design aligns with finger articulation points for more ergonomic grip feel and better traction in wet or dry conditions

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases

Compatible with standard mountain bike and handlebar diameters that accept lock-on grips. The single-clamp design works with most handlebars but verify bar-end compatibility if using integrated bar ends or specific grip shifters.

Ideal for downhill, enduro, trail, and all-mountain riding where hand comfort and vibration dampening are priorities. The extra-large 34.5mm diameter benefits riders with larger hands, those who prefer maximum cushioning, or anyone experiencing hand fatigue or arm pump on long descents or technical terrain. Suitable for both competitive and recreational riders across skill levels.
