Downhill grip for a bicycle
A downhill grip for a bicycle comprises an inner sleeve. The inner sleeve is enclosed by a grip element. For fixing the downhill bicycle grip to a bicycle handlebar, a fixing element is connectible to the inner sleeve. The grip element has a larger circumference in an outer region than at in an inner region.
1. A downhill grip for a bicycle, comprising
an inner sleeve,
a grip element enclosing the inner sleeve, and
a fixing element connectible to the inner sleeve, for fixing the downhill grip to a bicycle handlebar,
wherein the grip element has a larger circumference in a laterally outer region than in a laterally inner region,
wherein the fixing element at least partially surrounds a clamping region of the inner sleeve,
wherein the grip element has inner and outer surfaces that are designed with rotational symmetry with respect to a grip longitudinal axis, and
wherein the fixing element is arranged on a laterally inner side of the inner sleeve.
2. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 1 , wherein the circumference of the grip element decreases from the outer region to the inner region in a smooth manner.
3. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 1 , wherein the circumference of the grip element decreases from the outer region to the inner region in a continuous manner.
4. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 1 , wherein the grip element has a conically tapering shape from the outer region to the inner region.
5. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 1 , wherein only a sole fixing element is provided.
6. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 5 , wherein the circumference of the grip element decreases from the outer region to the inner region in a smooth manner.
7. A downhill grip for a bicycle, comprising
an inner sleeve having a clamping region at a laterally inner side;
a grip element having an inner surface and an outer surface, the inner surface bonded or molded to the inner sleeve so that the grip element encloses the inner sleeve except for the clamping region, the inner and outer surfaces having rotational symmetry with respect to a grip longitudinal axis; and
a fixing element at the clamping region, the fixing element being configured to fix the downhill grip to a bicycle handlebar, wherein the grip element has a larger circumference in a laterally outer region than in a laterally inner region, the laterally inner region being adjacent to the fixing element.
8. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 7 , wherein the outer surface of the grip element has a conically tapering shape between the laterally outer region and the laterally inner region.
9. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 7 , wherein the outer surface of the grip element has a conical shape between the laterally outer region and the laterally inner region.
10. The downhill grip for a bicycle according to claim 7 , wherein the fixing element is the only fixing element.
