| Ergonomic grip incorporates two components, an oval and a thumb piece that sits between the oval and the wheel rim and reduces effort to grip to the rim. TheNatural-Fit's ergonomic grip makes it possible to cover the same ground with less work and less fatigue. |  |

The oval comes in two sizes: The Natural-Fit and theNatural-Fit LT. The Natural-Fituses the original, larger profile oval and weighs 19 ounces whereas theNatural-Fit LT uses a reduced weight, smaller profile oval and weighs 15 ounces. To the left you can also see the thumb piece that extends to the rim of the wheel to keep your thumb from getting caught between the handrim, and also to provide a different pushing ergonomic. |
| The thumb piece offers two coating options: Standard Grip or Super Grip. The Standard Grip uses a powder coat on the thumb piece that provides a low friction surface to go along with the smooth braking surface on the oval. The Super Grip uses an advanced copolymer coating that provides a higher friction surface on the thumb piece (it is similar to a vinyl coating). This creates a grippier propulsion surface. |  |
