These grips are awesome. I love the OURY grips from ODI but they were always slipping. I had to finally go with some good old fashion wire and tie my grips down old school style. I started looking for lock on grips and sure enough, there were my OURY grips. These things are incredible. I would recommend them to anybody. Easy Installation, great quality, soft rubber, etc. YOU HAVE TO GET THESE GRIPS. Jenson USA was outstanding with the order process as usual.
Product Used For: 1 Month
Product Strengths:Quick, Easy, Solid Install........you have no idea how nice and easy these are to put on.
Product Weaknesses:Plastic bar ends but shouldn't really be a problem. The screw you tighten on the bar ends to keep them in seem to keep turning, turning, and turning. My bar ends will not come off but I thought if I kept turning the screw that it would get lost inside the bars. Some others have complained the rubber compound is a bit softer and thus wearing down sooner than some other grips. This wouldn't stop me from recommending the grips!
My Bike:2004 Specialized Stumpjumper FSR

Great glove traction, comfortable yet precise, gives a supportive yet forgiving bar feel. Get locking grips, and don't look back, the others are just a waste of time.
Product Used For: 3 Months
Product Strengths:Easy installation, awesome hold on the bars.
No annoying slip, glue, or struggle to get them installed.
Included end caps finish off the bar nicely, and are just as easily installed and removed as the grips themselves.
Lock rings won't gouge or damage your bars like some of those other setscrew-type lock-on grips.
Product Weaknesses:None. A one-time investment that will never have you looking back.
My Bike:Storck Pro Team Race

tried different kinds of grips. It either is too thin, wears fast or slips. These are the 1st lock on`s i`ve owned and I haven`t replaced em yet. Real comfortable and less fatigue on my hands.
Product Used For: 2 or More Years
Product Strengths:great comfort,long lasting,easy to install,sticky. I dont think i`ll ever use another kinda grip again.... they are just plain out PHAT ?!?!
Product Weaknesses:dont really like the end plugs it comes with. I ended up replacing them w/metal ones. Leaves ya hands black sometimes from long use also ( at times)
My Bike:old school 97 GT Backwoods. I`m building another bike and I plan to use these`s on it also.
