Ergon has been taking cues from what they saw at the Handmade Bicycle Show, and came to Interbike with a new cork-composite grip. It features their new, more eco-friendly packaging, too.

Those. Look. Awesome.
I’m interested to see their new packaging too…
It’s more paper than plastic: http://urbanvelo.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/interbike_2009_day3_02.jpg
I’ll save final judgment until I see the packaging and complete ingredients list, but it FEELS like greenwashing to me.
“Greenwashing” or not, the old Ergon packaging was a nightmare of stylish excess. ANY improvement is a good thing.
New packaging is 100% post consumer recycled paper. Our new packaging is 40% less material than the previous…and can be recycled. Lots more info here…

These look great. When might these be available?
