And now, for the stupid question of the day....

OK, I am befuddled by the obvious.

When one buys GRIPS on line, say ERGON GR2, for about $50, do you get one grip, or do you get a set? I know what the "s" on grip shopld mean, but I keep seeing units as "1" and don't see set. Please do not laugh. I am almost senile and fading fast.

Thanks for a quick and kind answer.

usually a set, however email / call the store and ask is usually the safest way as they may differ in what they offer.

I can't imagine it wouldn't be two...but I haven't bought anything online for awhile except from Rivendell, and they always specify "one bikesworth" for grips or brakes or anything that comes in pairs.

If you're buying grips from a retailer, you will get a set of two; from a private party, you may get foam pipe insulation!

I'm a newbie too and had the same question when I was looking for some. They come as a set. Same with handlebar tape.

It's kind of like buying shoes only different.
