GS3 Leichtbau
The GS3 Leichtbau is the bigger brother of the GS2. Using the same grip body, the benefits of Leichtbau DirectControl rubber and the new endurance design have been combined with a full sized GFK composite bar end. Featuring non-slip rubber inserts, the bar end doubles as the clamp for grip allowing both to be individually angled.

The Size Difference.
As hand size is different from person to person, Ergon manufactures the GP, GC, GR, GS, GE and GA ranges in two sizes - Small and Large. This difference is in the diameter of the grip. The reason for this is that a larger hand is better able to grip a larger grip with less stress and effort.
This is the same in reverse for small grip. A smaller hand needs a smaller grip to allow the hand to close around it. Of course, this is all also down to personal preference.
