Frequently Asked Questions, Diablo Grip Tape
Is this grip also suitable for the Diablo Renegade?
No, the Diablo Renegade requires a different grip. The Diablo Renegade combines the Diablo chassis with Renegade bindings, which alters the grip's cut-out areas. If you own a Diablo Renegade, please choose the Renegade Grip Tape, which includes the necessary cut-outs for the bindings. The standard Diablo grip is only compatible with Diablo Carbon and Diablo Bamboo models without bindings.
Why does the grip wear out faster on the Diablo?
The Diablo is Evolve's most powerful model, packing 7000W and hitting 55 km/h. This immense power puts increased stress on the grip: brutal accelerations can cause your feet to shift, intense braking creates significant friction, and high speeds amplify every movement. It's normal for a Diablo's grip to wear slightly faster than on less powerful models. Regular cleaning and proper foot positioning will help extend its lifespan.
What's the difference between Diablo grip and Hadean grip?
While visually similar, the Diablo and Hadean have different decks with unique dimensions and contours. The Diablo grip is slightly longer to perfectly fit the Diablo deck. Using a Hadean grip on a Diablo (or vice versa) would lead to fit issues: overhanging edges, uncovered areas, or misalignment with the trucks. Always choose the grip that exactly matches your specific model.
How can I maximize the grip on my Diablo?
Several factors contribute to ensuring the best grip on your Diablo. First, consider your shoes: they should be suitable, with flat, non-slip soles (avoid leather or smooth soles). Your grip must remain clean; regularly clean it with a Grip Cleaner to remove any residue. The positioning of your feet is also crucial, make sure they're firmly on the areas with the most grip. In wet weather, dry your grip before you ride and reduce your speed, as grip significantly decreases on a wet surface.
Should I replace my grip before a speed session?
If your grip shows smooth or worn areas, yes, replace it before any high-speed session. A worn grip can cause dangerous slips during intense accelerations or braking. On the Diablo, with its extreme performance, good grip isn't just about comfort; it's a safety necessity. Regularly inspect the areas under your feet (front and back) where wear is most significant.
How long does a Diablo grip tape last?
The lifespan depends on your ride style and how often you use it. With intensive use (daily, long sessions, high speeds), a Diablo grip can last between 1000 and 2000 km. With moderate use, it can last 2500 to 4000 km. The main wear factors include: frequency of accelerations/braking, shoe type, weather conditions, and maintenance quality. Monthly cleaning will significantly extend its lifespan.
