Old Dutch International Reflex MTB Lock-On Grips 135mm Army Green — 33.5mm Medium/Large, Impact-Damping Comfort

Old Dutch International ODI Reflex 135mm lock-on MTB grips in army green provide targeted impact dampening and ergonomic control for longer, more comfortable rides.

Designed from rider feedback across downhill World Cup, EWS and everyday trail riding, the Reflex v2.1 grips combine a medium-durometer proprietary compound with sculpted geometry to reduce hand and arm fatigue without dulling trail feel. Each zone of the grip is purpose-built: ribbed thumb sections soften impacts, a padded top follows natural hand position, and an angled waffle pattern aligns with finger articulation for improved control. The single-clamp v2.1 lock-on system keeps the usable grip length maximized and the reinforced soft ends increase durability for regular trail use.

How do these grips reduce arm pump and fatigue?

The Reflex compound and sculpted profiles absorb high-frequency vibrations and larger impacts, spreading shock away from your palms and forearms. That helps delay the onset of arm pump and lets you maintain better control on long or rough rides.

• Medium-durometer proprietary material engineered for impact dampening
• Padded top section with angled pads to follow hand position
• Ribbed thumb area to attenuate hits at the contact point

Will the 33.5mm diameter suit my riding style and hand size?

The 33.5mm medium/large diameter offers a balance between comfort and precise control, favored by riders who want cushioning without sacrificing feedback. It fits a wide range of hand sizes and riding styles from enduro to aggressive trail and downhill sessions.

• Medium/large 33.5mm profile for balanced feel and control
• Comfortable padding for long rides and technical sections
• Suitable for riders seeking a blend of shock absorption and grip feedback

What mounting and durability features does the v2.1 lock-on system provide?

The v2.1 single-clamp lock-on design secures the grip firmly while freeing up usable length along the handlebar. Installation is straightforward, and the reinforced soft ends resist wear from crashes or heavy use.

• Single-clamp v2.1 lock-on system for secure, simple installation
• More usable grip space compared to dual clamp designs
• Reinforced soft ends protect against scuffs and impact damage

How do the textured patterns help with control and comfort?

Each texture area is positioned to match how your hands and fingers naturally sit on the bars. Oversized ribs and angled waffle patterns line up with finger articulation points to boost purchase and tactile feedback without creating pressure hotspots.

• Angled waffle pattern enhances traction where fingers engage the grip
• Oversized top rib improves control during braking and cornering
• Soft ribs at the thumb area provide extra impact damping where it matters

Who this is for: The ODI Reflex 135mm army green grips suit riders who want professional-level impact dampening and ergonomic design without sacrificing trail feedback. They’re useful for downhill racers, enduro competitors, and weekend warriors who log long days on rough terrain and want a durable, comfortable lock-on grip with plenty of usable length.
