Hunt Wilde
Founded in the 1940’s, Hunt Wilde Corporation established itself as the largest manufacturer of bicycle grips in the United States and held that title for decades. Over the years, its line of injection molded grips grew beyond the bicycle market as new models were designed for applications like outdoor power equipment, tools, and health care equipment.
With bicycle manufacturing shifting to Asia and domestic competition increasing, Hunt Wilde closed or sold off most of its operations in 2006.
In 2011, GripWorks acquired the Hunt Wilde grip tooling and began manufacturing this product line once again in the United States. Many of these grips are now available in this store, but the GripWorks website provides details on the entire line of Hunt Wilde injection molded grips.
