E-Control MTB Grip

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"On a technically demanding trail where you are constantly managing terrain and motor output at the same time, having a separate Steps controller that requires you to shift your grip is a real liability, and the PRO E-Control MTB Grip solves that problem as cleanly as anything I have tested. The integration with SHIMANO Steps is seamless, mode switching is intuitive under load, and the Kraton compound holds up well even when conditions get wet, and your grip starts doing real work. For anyone building or upgrading a Steps-equipped E-MTB, this grip should be on the short list."

E-MTB cockpit integration has become one of the more meaningful battlegrounds in component design, and the PRO E-Control MTB Grip represents a clean solution to one of its most persistent friction points: the separation between where your hand lives on the bar and where your motor controls are mounted. By building SHIMANO Steps functionality directly into the grip body, PRO eliminates the need for a standalone controller unit and the hand repositioning that comes with it every time the trail demands a mode change.

The grip is constructed from a polypropylene core with a Kraton rubber compound contact surface, a pairing that delivers the structural rigidity needed for precise bar feel alongside the tactile grip and vibration damping that E-MTB riding demands over extended time in the saddle. The ergonomic profile is shaped specifically for the biomechanics of E-MTB use, accounting for the additional handlebar forces generated by a heavier, motor-assisted platform on technical terrain. At 125g, the grip adds meaningful functionality without a weight penalty worth considering.

Compatibility is specific to SHIMANO Steps, covering Boost, Trail, Eco, and Walk mode selection from a thumb-accessible position that never requires the rider to break their grip on the bar. The grip is optimized for pairing with the PRO Koryak E-Performance handlebar, and that combination represents a cohesive integration solution for riders building or upgrading a Steps-equipped E-MTB who want cockpit controls that feel purpose-built rather than bolted on as an afterthought.
