I'm a bit of a "white-knuckler" and these feel great when I'm holding on for dear life. The padded YETI lettering is soft and doesn't interfere with the feel of the trail (just softens the jolts).
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:cushioned lettering gives relief to your hands (even through gloves). Comes in multiple colors, holds up well over time and hard use.
My Bike:Upgraded Mongoose Tyax with rizer bar, xt 9-speed trigger shifters and antlers

Lasts a long time, as comfy as wearing a good pair of athletic shoes, comes in different colors, has a hole on both ends so you can put a plug on the end of the bar. Made in USA, Price aint bad, neither....too bad Yeti's frames are over-priced though. As long as I ride, these are my choice...and as long as they can still produce them here in the USA with rising manufacturing costs as they are here. Good luck Yeti.
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:They last a long time, & super-very comfortable. Possibly the most comfy grips out there. Has lots of 'shock' from the Yeti letters spelled out on the grips. Ive tried Specialized, ODI, WTB and a few others and by far, these are way better. I'm ordering a pair now for my other bike that has WTB's on it, those are as comfortable as going on a 20 mile hike wearing top siders.
Product Weaknesses:You have to order them on the internet as most bikeshops pimp out their own house brand grips like Specialized, WTB or Trek/Bontranger crap. You will have a hard time finding them at a bikeshop, unless you go to a indie shop that isn't a slave to their brand line of bikes that they sell.

great experience with these grips. i couldn't explain myself anymore. but i guess i have to because of the 20 word requirement. well there u have it.
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:Awesome grips. I have been using them for the past two years now and yet no sign the grip hardening or dry rotting. The best and last grips i will ever own. I bought a carbon handle bar and now i don't even use gloves. These grips work like molassas
Product Weaknesses:non. very comfortable
My Bike:A Giant XTC SE2 frame but built it up my self with different parts:XT drive train, Raceface Evolve XC crankset '05, manitou Min 1 fork. mavic crossmax enduro disc rims, Hope Mono mini's (front and rear) XT rapid fire Shifter pods, EC90 handle bar, blah blah blah don't be jeolous. took me two years to get it to what i wanted.

Plain and simple these are the best grips I have ever used. They are super soft and sticky, yet really durable. They are a bit pricey for grips, but spend the extra money and youll be completely happy you did. I would recommend them for any style of riding. (I mainly use them for XC)
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:great grip: what more could you want
