SYNTACE SCREW-ON GRIPZ MOTO
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE PURCHASE OF YOUR NEW SYNTACE
SCREW-ON GRIPZ. Please carefully read all instructions as we have
included some important information and helpful tips.
NOTE: for 2009 the angle between the knob and the crosshairs
of the Screw-On Gripz has changed. Precisely, the angle of
the knob relative to the crosshairs has changed. However, the
Moto-crosshairs have not changed their position and are still
designed to face directly into the lower arm in order to provide
best damping properties.
Syntace Screw-on Gripz from 2009 onwards, are mounted on the
handlebar without additional bar plugs. The Moto grip's new integ-
rated bar end protection design with alloy insert reliably protects
your carbon handlebar end. Additionally, it saves another few grams
when compared to the previous alternative with bar plugs.
Mounting
• Apply a little Syntace Dynamics friction paste to the clamping sur-
faces on the bar and inside the grips.
• Slide the Screw-On Gripz onto the MTB handlebar (Ø 22,2) in one
move until it hits the end-stop.

• Mount the enclosed end
caps to the handlebar by
removing the backing of the
double sided tape.
• Ensure the end caps are
securely held in place and
are positioned correctly in
the grips.
CAUTION: Do not put the end caps inside the grips and then
mount the grips. If this is done, it can happen that the grips are
not fully mounted on the handlebar. If the grip becomes lose
by incorrect installation, dangerous situations (with possible
consequence of death) could arise.
• In order to make best use of the integrated slip-off protection, yet
retain the free movement of the hand, we suggest following: twist
the respective grip until the clamping slit of the slip-off protection is
at approx. 5 o'clock on the right, and at approx. 7 o'clock on the left.

Max. 3 Nm!
• Tighten the grip's clamping screws with 3 Nm. (Allenkey KW 4, e.g.
long side of the Syntace X-FIX, if neccessary: TORX 25). If you do
not own a torque tool, only use the short end of the Syntace key as
a lever!
• On chrome handlebars (quite rare) or similar, 60-80 mm of the bar
ends may need to be roughened up a little (e.g. with abrasive paper)
to ensure a non-twisting fit. Do not "sand-through" the handlebar's
protecting surface layer.
• When fitting to clear lacquer carbon handlebars also roughen up
the surface layer a little in order to ensure the grip does not twist.
• When using grip shift style shifters (e.g. Gripshift) the grips may be
shortened by a maximum of 23 mm.
TIP: the brake levers at approx 20-25 mm from the inside end of
the grip. This allows you to operate the brakes with the required
leverage for efficient one-finger (or two finger) braking while
keeping best control of your bike.
