Hi

 

This is maybe a stupid question to ask here but i have searched the forum and cant find a clear answer.

I like Esi grips, they don't give me numb hands and are quite light. Also colour coded so you can add some pimpness

i have tried ESI grips and they arent bad but i prefer the lock grips from SRAM one of the few grips that you can clean properly

Only 2 choices really

If you like to fiddle and constanly change handlebars etc then lock on grips are the best - ODI

 

Otherwise ESI ( Chunky ) - All day comfort ..

Unless you're quite anal about keeping your stuff clean and avoid riding mud avoid white :unsure:

Esi ( chunky) give me numb hands, I've tried them a few times, as they seem to work well for everybody else, so found Specialized BG contour , lightweight lock on grips, easier to remove when need to and the bigger surface are has prevented my numb hands ( a real problem as I do not have suspension anymore :wacko: ) I wear xxl gloves and the narrower womens grips are still wide enough for me, do not know why the mens grips are so wide.

You get a bunch of real *** grips

Used Giant OEM

Lizzard skins

Sram

and some other

but, ESI stays the most comfortable
