I was wondering if anybody knew of a site that sells wider grips, my hands are huge these grips are way too small, I get cramps in my hand from them. Any help is greatly appreciated.

 

my buddy tried some giant harley grips on his bike last year. The inner diameter of the grips was too small and the grip would hinder twisting the throttle and prevent it from closing on it's own. So be cautious, but I'd be interested in a change as well.

 

I use Oury mountain bike grips. Super comfortable and real sticky (if you like that). I cut the ends off to allow bar-end sliders. You can probably find them at a local bicycle shop to check the diameter.

Yeah, I have heard a few horror stories with grips... Guess it is hit or miss???



Mountain bike grips??? How well do they fit? Any kind of design on them?

 

They come in solid colors and have big blocks on them. Check the link I posted above. I'll post a pic of them on my bike tonight when I get home. They get dirty easy if you get a bright color, but for $7 a pair I just replace them.

 

when you replace the grips, what do you use as tack?

 

Here are a few pics. That is my set from last year, I haven't put the new ones on yet. They stay clean for a few months, the black ones look clean forever.

I put use hairspray as tack and compressed air. Spray the inside and the bare handle, then use a pointed tip on the air gun between the grip and bar, it will inflate the grip so you can slide it on and at the same time it dries out the hairspray making it sticky.
