Good so far. Fairly large contact area. I have rheumatoid arthritis (primarily in my wrists) so this is my least uncomfortable 'flat-bar' set up (drops, in comparison, surprisingly comfy when on the hoods - where I spend 95% of the time).
I'm not entirely convinced how much better they are than the GP-1 (I have an old set of these on Mary bars on my pub bike - so a similar setup). But I'm pretty committed to this style of backswept bars so thought I'd give them a try. Plus the sciencey stuff on the ergon website seems genuine.
Cork is nice too. Slightly harder than the rubber but not by much. Hoping they'll be a bit more hard wearing.

Are they the Ergon GC1 grips? I just ordered some, how are you getting on with them?
