saint jed Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I am gonna get some new grips but im not sure whether to get some echo, DMR or a type of foam grip. What are the best type of grips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alextheferret Posted January 19, 2010 Report Share Posted January 19, 2010 I had rubber grips (the standard onza ones) for 2-3 years. Recently I swapped to foam's, the difference is amazing: much nicer feel, more comfy and they absorb sweat. Alot of people have problems sticking them to their bars but once that is sorted they are pretty amazing grips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just buy both cus there pretty cheap. I thought it might be, wasn't too sure though. I didn't want to ask you then end up looking like a plonker Anyway, Trust me jack, alot of people will agree with me. Trialtech Foam's are the way forward!

TrialFahrer Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 I think try all loc all grips are good. I like foam alot yet I think I use them up alot faster than rubber. So I use lock on grips for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINDUS Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 Halfords £4.99 bmx grips are the best!!! i use them on all my bikes dont make your hands sticky, they last ages and are soft yet not to thick so no movement in the rubber. And there £4.99 cant go wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Canham Posted January 22, 2010 Report Share Posted January 22, 2010 I had some Echo rubber ones in white, and i think they where very good, bit uncomfortable but good grip. The ones i got now are pretty good, but i do not know what they are as i bought them off a mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
