petit_pablo Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Do you ride with gloves?I use quite hard grips and gloves.I cant suggest anything to stop the wear on your grips.To stop the grips sliding i make sure the bar is clean then put them on with a little hairspray as it acts like a glue once dry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 Get some Loc Ons. If you can find some Yeti Speed grips in loc on, then get them, they're hard, and wear gloves/don't be a pussy! Or just live with it, grips wear out like tyres do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike Posted January 8, 2006 Report Share Posted January 8, 2006 you can get metal spacers that simply bolt on to your handle bars next to the leaver, of most grips you get nowerdays have like ridges on both ends which are for putting zip-ties in. if not you can get carbon fibre spacers that go on mountain bikes' headsets (i think) and they are really strong you need to cut a small section out of it to make a tight fit, but if you run a file around it you can locate a zip-tie in it and hold it in position. of you can get the grips with dual compound which dont wear away quickly, and if they do you'll have to buy more, you'll never going to get grips which last forever, but they have ends on, i think Kona make them The Kona Gripshope i help Mike!!!
