Ruby vs ESI grips vs Luvhandles?

Recommended Posts

I noticed the "deforming" since day one. All i do before a ride is i "twist" them so that a thick part is up again. I also noticed saturday on the 50 miler that my palms were hurting like a bitch towards the end which never has happened before.

 

But i think the thicker grips will sort this problem out. Dont know what i am going to do with the 3 spare sets i have...

 

also seeing the deforming, on my rigid in particular...

 

i can't see the grips lasting much longer than another 2-3 months.

Hi guys. Any chance of getting the Much Luv's out and delivered by the weekend?

Hi Ferro, we are patiently waiting for the Luv to arrive from our manufacture. As soon as it hit our distribution centers we will let you know! At this stage it seems like the Luv will not be here in time for delivery by this weekend... Thanks for the patience thus far! We are doing everything we can to speed up the process.

Hi Meezo, Thanks for the feedback! Ja you crazy okes with the rigids... For us normal guys with suspension the Luv should last much longer, some of our team riders have had them on for more than a year now with W2W and Epic behind the belt without any compromise on comfort or quality.

Possible to put one on top of the other?

I have tried them and find them too thin (maybe big hands)

Haven't seen that this has been done before, perhaps a thicker grip?

Don't see thicker ones coming anytime soon so it is a "double up" at double the price as well.

Not worth it, I think.

define "soon" ...... as I read it above in the thread, one can expect them by next week as their expected delivery to LH for this weekend is not possible

One ride later :-(

Oh no Akneethling... What happened to your Luv?  Seems like a piece was torn out somehow?

Nope. No impact whatsoever. As you can see there is no damage to the adjacent end cap. I'm not sure how that could have happened.

Looks odd, does not look like a product failure.

Granted. But I don't know how that could have happened as I never had a fall. Maybe I'll retrace my steps to see how/where this could have happened. I only have them for a week. My bike has stood against walls and gone onto the bike rack a few times. It could have been bumped against a wall or two. But this damage?

You didn't maybe hurt it when you put them on?
