7OX 2.0 Pro ltd. ION
the Downhill & Gravity grip
for ultimate control

Together with ION, we have developed a limited version of the new 7OX 2.0 Pro downhill and gravity grip. In combination with the 6OX ERGOWAVE® active 2.1 saddle in the ION version, the cockpit of your MTB is perfectly matched.

Two pioneering brands of the Boards and More Group, one common guiding principle: the joy of cycling. The SQlab X ION products represent the perfect ergonomics of SQlab and the stylish performance of ION. The designs, inspired by water sports, give the products a laidback touch. The design of the 6OX and 7OX products from ION pays particular attention to the contour lines in the mountains and pays an impressive tribute to mountain biking - true to the ION motto "Surfing Trails".

Optimum fit:

The 7OX 2.0 Pro ltd. ION is available in three sizes. In order to do justice to the individual anatomy, the grip sizes differ in length and diameter. The right grip size guarantees an optimum fit, makes the most of the ergonomic features and increases riding comfort and an active, yet energy-saving position on the bike.

Damped grip outside:

protects the palm of the hand and provides comfort. An additional buffer zone protects the grip in the case of impacts.

Maximum control in any terrain:

The gravity and downhill grip offers unbeatable grip, even in the most adverse conditions. Wetness and mud are no obstacle here.

Best materials for long-lasting performance:

The soft, grippy soft rubber compound provides secure feedback with good abrasion resistance.

Intelligent clamping for more cushioning: The clamping is located in the first third on the inside, which significantly improves cushioning and comfort on the outside of the hand.

Textured Ergobar: The Ergobar can be found on all our grips. It perfectly replicates the angled fingers and ensures a secure grip. We have also equipped the 7OX 2.0 Pro with a new textured zone. It gives the hand precise grip in all directions, feedback and a secure feeling when riding.

Elevated: The end of the grip is cushioned and raised outwards to cushion the palm on rough descents.

Improved ergonomics for defined grip, maximum comfort and an overall better sense of grip.

Especially in downhill, freeriding and other gravity disciplines, the "grip" contact point is crucial for fast times, precise lines, safe landings and relaxed, extensive days in the bike park. The redesign of the 7OX 2.0 Pro ltd. ION grip has resulted in even better grip ergonomics, which has a positive effect on arm strength.

Deepened: The 7OX 2.0 Pro ltd. ION has a recessed dip on the inside of the grip for the index finger. The index finger is slightly lower when gripping the level and now has an even better grip thanks to the recess.

Diamond structure: For defined grip and control in all weather conditions.

Prevent arm pump and save energy

Our internal tests have proven that the new 7OX 2.0 Pro grip can prevent pressure peaks and positively influence arm muscle fatigue.

The well-known problem of arm pump is always present when mountain biking. If the muscles of the forearm are tensed for a longer period of time, coupled with rapidly recurring impacts from braking bumps, root zones, etc., the blood flow in the blood vessels is reduced. This results in the feeling that the forearms are " tightening", which leads to a loss of strength in the hand muscles.

In order to investigate this loss of strength, SQlab examined the activation of the forearm muscles using electromyography (EMG) measurements (measures the electrical impulses in the muscle, which indicate the degree of activation of the muscle). In addition, acceleration sensors on the handlebars were used to record unevenness in the form of vibrations in the ground and a grip force measurement.

Based on the results of the study with our MTB handlebars and 7OX grips (with different compounds), a new TPE compound for more damping and control was developed for the 7OX Pro grip to further reduce arm pump for all ambitious riders.

Starting point: round, standard grip

The extremely high pressure on the outside leads to irritation of the ulnar nerve. The consequences are pressure pain and numbness on the little finger and ring finger.

Comparison: 7OX 2.0 Pro

The increase in support on the outer edge of the hand is effective. The pressure is reduced by 50%. This is partly due to the better TPE compound and the fact that the pressure peak is distributed over a larger area (4 sensors instead of 2 sensors).
