Ruby vs ESI grips vs Luvhandles?

[Belgarath]

 

Put them on last night. My wife and I had a bit of a squabble over who gets the blue grips, which I lost... But, I think the little blue nicely lines up with the rest of the bike.

 

I did have a tough time with the plug on my wife's Syncross carbon handlebar. Gave up. The opening of the aluminum end cap is just to small to fit them, ended up fitting some cheap plastic ones which I was able to abuse enough.

Hi Rickus, thanks sharing your luv looks great!! Try and "trim" the middle rubber plug circle with a nail clipper. Taking off a 1mm or 2 should do the trick!

Got 3 more sets today (1 for the wife, 1 as spare and 1 as a gift to a buddy), and 2 more peeps in the office wanted your website link!

Seeing as this thread has properly been hijacked by photos of these awesome grips, I thought they deserve their own thread.

Got mine on with some deodorant without too much hassle. Smells nicer than the hairspray...

I'll give you R1 if you give them to me

 

They are decent. Was out on two rides so far - very comfy.

Some Red Hot Luv... 

[robsc]

Also got black ones with dirty white ends . Amazingly comfortable and the ends are much better than my ESI grips 

[scubes]

I need to order more but the black and green are outta stock. I slide them on easy with a bit of olive oil.. organic and slides on quick easy and then dries off overnight.

Hi Kevin, there was a slight delay in our production but we should be able to give you as MUCH LUV as possible within the next 2 weeks. We'll keep you posted! Thanks for the patience thus far.

Thanks will keep an eye out.

 

Another question.

 

Everybody is raving about the end cap/plugs, Why not also offer the end caps by themselves?

I would buy some to have extra's in my tool box for when they get damaged.
