Please Tell Me The Comfiest Comfy Grips You Know
« on: 18 February 2015, 11:58:29 am »
Hiya fellas,

As per title really.

My grips are shot to pieces and looking for a nice, vibe reducing comfy grip that can handle 15k miles a year.

If you've got a set fitted you swear by or know of some you've had then I'd love to buy on recommendation rather than "they look good" and hating them.

Cheers in advance fellas  :thumbup

Same as tyres - you can't expect soft and comfy to last as long as harder ones, Don't fall for the blurb of the renthal kevlar ones, they didn't last 5 minutes, but they are nice n soft!

I find all grips too small for my shovels so I use these Grip Puppies on them

Find them very comfy and reduce the vibe a great deal. Father in law also uses them and loves them.

Progrip 732. Lovely, soft and sticky and last for ages. I've bought these a few times now as I was that impressed with them the first time I fitted them. Best grips I've fitted to any of my bikes (IMO).
