Good, sticky grips?
#1
I recently bought some shitty £10 grips from local store, only to find out they slip in hot weather when palms get sweaty, and that's often here in Croatia because we have long hot summers.

Any recommendation for better ones?



EDIT:
for the reference, it's these ones:

Galindo super bike grips, been my favourite for years.
Nice and tacky when warm.

I've had a look , want some myself but the only place I've found them on the interWeb is EBC. I'll ask about them on Monday. Saw some on flea bay but postage was a bit steep, not had my fazer long so planned to ride it for the rest of the nice weather then do some work on it, grips would've been on the list, they're spot on. Think I'll get some now tho.

It may be 38 Degrees but you'll be sorry when you have no skin left on your hands if you have an off. I don't care how hot it is you should always protect yourself.
I could change my opinion, but then we'd both be wrong.

info@mcaleicester.co.uk

Just ordered a pair from MCA in Leicester they're on the web, may be worth a call or email to find out the postage.
It cost me just under 15 quid inc post. Well worth it I reckon.

There's a phone number and contact details on the site too, email contact at top of post.

Finally got them from a retailer in my country.
They're fine for now, although a bit on the hard side, but at least they don't slip !
Also they're a bit shorter than previous ones, so now I have some space between them and the weight.

Good to hear you managed to get hold of them (no pun intended) mine should be here on Tuesday.
I'm not 100% certain but I think they make two different length grips.
I saw what I thought was them in a bike shop last week, they were identical , even had superbike written on them but they weren't made by galindo.

I received some kind of spacer with them but didn't put it.
Let me know when you get yours are they a bit short.
