Vinnydabutcher Posted August 23, 2011 Share 5 Min - 10 min I guess. I usually changed them the night before and went riding the next day. It is a hassle though! But worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted August 23, 2011 Share And how long after you put them back on can you start riding? You can ride as soon as they're on, thats from new though. I would imagine it would be the same after taking off and putting them back on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubba Posted August 23, 2011 Share how do you take them off and then ca nyou put them back on again?From ESI Site: Q: What is the best way to install ESI MTB Grips? A: Clean handle bars. Press in End Caps. Using Rubbing Alcohol or Window cleaner clean inside of ESI MTB grips, wet bar and inside of grip, slide onto bar. Rotate grip to have the Thicker side towards palm. Let dry for 24 hours. Q: Can I remove ESI grips? A: Yes! Slide a screw driver with a dulled point (or something similar) under grip (careful not to scratch bar or stretch grip), squirt Rubbing Alcohol, Window cleaner or water under grip, twist grip off bar. Clean inside of grip with Rubbing Alcohol or Window cleaner and reinstall. If you have access to a compressor just blow them off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Posted August 23, 2011 Share how do you take them off and then ca nyou put them back on again? Taken mine off a few times . take a long smooth rod like a spoke then push it down one side of the grip between the bar and grip.spray some water in with a hosepipe and twist it till its slips loose.slide it off do your thing and slip it back as per the normal installation.

Hairy Posted August 23, 2011 Share For the best chunky grips on the market, get these. http://www.thehubsa....9183-odi-grips/ But they are just plain old black! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobody Posted August 23, 2011 Share I take mine off by just sliding it off. It doesnt come off easy but you have to pull, pull, pull.To put them on I just use soapy water. It helps if you dont have them on right and need to move them around a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted August 23, 2011 Share I got red ones! Have red hubs and other red bits on a blue frame, so should look ridiculous.No brother, that's not going to work. Keep the red grips and hubs, but spray the bike black. Red sunnies and red and black helmet and you good to go. Styling is most important. Bike won't treat you well or go fast if it looks dodge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grebel Posted August 23, 2011 Share Nice feel but very expensive for non removable grips. How much is expensive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
