Flex MTB Togs

They work. However installing them is shockingly difficult. The bolt lines up on the bench, but once this thing is stretched over the bar ... well it is at an angle. It takes try after try, and force, and time. Then the kicker. The nut pocket is too weak to hold the bolt so you can tighten it enough. It slips, but it is in a hex shaped plastic hole, so there is nothing you can do. Don't overtighten you say? One of my togs could be rotated with light finger pressure. The fastening system needs a redesign. Honestly for the already high price, just make them even more expensive and put an aluminum pivoting bracket on the bar clamp part. The other option would be to use a tab with a screw like my $5 bell, and at least that bell is easily and properly attached.

After having a broken scaphoid from a roadie/truck collision I added TOGS to my HT MTB for Leadville training and racing. The added position and comfort was a game change and allowed me to prepare/race without any pain or uncomfortable feeling in the wrist. Already have a pair for a bike that is on order!

I'm a big fan of getting the thumbs up over the grips as often as possible in long rides like 100 mile MTB races. I heard about these from the Leadville 100 Podcast and it sounded like something I never knew I needed. I've had several rides with them and I am quite impressed. TOGS let you get your thumbs up, but still give you excellent control. I'm ordering another pair for my trail MTB.

I really liked the tog and they make a difference when my hands get numb. I found, over time the top part ripped off. The first 3/4 is a harder material with a rubber coating but the last 1/4 is just a rubber material and that's the part the ripped. Overall it's a great product and works.

Put a set of the TOGS Flex on my ne mtb & gave them a good 3 day workout in southeastern Ohio riding a variety of terrain & trails, they made a big difference in the hand numbness that I’ve been experiencing before installation. The extra hand/grip positions it allows really makes a difference while riding.
