tris Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Flat end screw driver with chain lube or hairspray or cleaner on it. Slide under grip and wipe all round. Then twist grip off.Think this could have gone in small random questions....Don't you?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Callum.Curwood Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Undo your brake lever, then just pull and twist on that agianst the grip and the grip should come off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyseemonkeydo Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 I usually just stick the bike on its side, push a skinny (1-1.5mm) allen key between the bar and grip and then pour a little water down the gap. Give the grip a little twist and it'll slide off easy as you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendy Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 hair spray under them. (using a screw driver etc. to lift them) then twist them off if they have the ends that cover the hole in the bar you can use a football pump fitting and block the opposite side. Blowing down the bar with the other end blocked works for some grips as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoby Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Is there not a Wiki section About this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muel Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 Attach the needle for a football pump to a track pump, insert it under the grip then squeeze the grip onto the needle hard to seal it and pull, then get someone to pump the pump hard.Usually comes off straight away.

Ash-Kennard Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 rubber ones should just roll off, if youve got foam then listen to the advice above Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nate Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Yeh i agree, easiest way is to undo your brake lever and pull it off, its the way i do all of mine and it works a treat without damaging your grips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan S Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 there are 2 sides of the grips.The one closer to the brake lever and one on the edge of the bar.Take the lever end of the grip. then push it to the take off direction with your fingers. works perfectly>!
