Otacon Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 (edited) TartyBikes Soft Raffle grips are really good if your after rubber grips. Similar to the Echo Rubber and Try-All rubber grips, just a little softer, so don't hurt your hands as much. Nice and cheap to at £3. Last a good while aswell considering the price.TrialTech foam grips are amazing if you are after foam type grips. I personally havn't used these, but have ridden bike's with them on, also heard nothing but good things about them. Unlike Halfords foam grips etc, these one's don't rip, which is quite rare when it comes to foam grips!

Captain Scarlet Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Foam grips are absolutely pointless in the wet, (whilst actually raining), as water gets in and they slip off.But who actually rides in the wet?Try-All foam grips/or TrialTech ones are the best as they fit to the bar very well and last much longer than Halfords ones.

grant_hundley Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 really? why ?If I can ride in the wet, then I can ride better in dry..Teaches you to find grip, rather than rely on your set up.And why not? Just because I'd get a bit wet? You're afraid of rain..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davey1991 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Lock ons, or something like that, jesus this topic is hard to reply to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 As said, lock ons are the best fot the wet.I once ripped off the remaining grip from some worn out lock ons, and glue some halfords foams on, was alright..bit thick though.They worked well. Or just glue on some foam grips.. I used to like the Halfords ones as you get a pack of four for around £5, and they're quite thick and comfy!
