Hi guys, just about to buy some new grips and wondering what you guys are using/ liking? I'm sure there are some clear favorites out there.

A friend of mine swears by the Renthal Kevlar Resin ones. I have no experience with them, I've felt them on his bike and they definitely feel like grips, other than that, no idea if they're worth the extra few bucks.

 

I like cheap gel grips from my local bicycle shops. Nice padding, last for decent amount of time and most importantly, cheap.
I am very light on the grips, avoid "death grips" while riding at all time. Bicycle gel trips does a good job at damping the engine vibe, hands rarely go numb after 3-4 hrs long rides.

 

I like squishy ones. For jetski's I run oury square block grips. On my streetbike I run pro grip superbike dual density in blue to match the bike. Trackbike still has stockers on it with no reason to switch.

 

For comfort, I like the Pro Grip Superbikes that Boredandstroked is running. I've run the Renthal softs and liked them and I hear the Kevlar ones are just more durable ones. I plan on getting a set of the kevlar ones for my track bike next year as the stockers are shot.

 

Apparently I'm using the same progrip gels that boredandstroked and raylee are using. I have the all black ones.
They're a significant improvement over the stock ones in terms of comfort and grip. And they're cheap. I think I paid like $14 shipped on ebay.

 

Thanks for the replies! I have the Pro Grip ones at the moment. The only reason to even change them is that I cut one of them down too much on one side when I was messing around with my bar end weights.

I like the idea of the Oury grips, I use those on my bicycle. I might try some Renthal Road Race full diamond grips in medium. Seem to be finding lots of good reviews on them. I could just get the Pro Grips again but there's always a temptation to try something else.. It's interesting that you guys are liking the softer compounds. Maybe I'll go to the local bike shop and have a squeeze on some of them.

 

I use Galindo Superbike Grips on every bike I own except the vintage bikes. They are a little thicker than most grips and a little harder which helps alleviate hand cramps for me. The safety wire grooves are gravy too for your track only bikes

I find that a lot of riding gloves have thick and or segmented palms and they don't always bend real easy around smaller diameter grips so with these being a little bit larger my gloves seem to grasp them better giving me finer control over the grip
