DeeDougie Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Just bought my 1st bike (2nd hand 2010 zoot) really plessed with it n it seems the previous owner kept it really well with a few upgrades already fitted. Jackpot! 1st issue though is no grips on the bike. Without sounding a right ol div.... wat are the preferences for grips in trials? Soft/sponge/hard/rubber/knobbly/smooth etc. Oh and I have just thought while writing this post.... cant seem to find the geo or original spec list for the 2010 Zoot anywhere. The 2013 is easy enough (tarty provide with all bikes) but will this be the same for the 2010? Or if anyone has the 2010 spec list would they be so kind to post it back to me as I want to see what other aftermarket products have been added that I may have missed. Cheers.

UK_SPAWN Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 Foam grips are what its all about. Trialtech foam - standard not thin. 6quid from tarty. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeDougie Posted August 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) Top stuff!.. I'll get them ordered up! Now just a matter of getting the Geo for the 2010 zoot! Thanks people. Edited August 4, 2013 by DeeDougie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HippY Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 I would maybe use rubber for street trial Foam: lighter ( with a few gram, you wont feel it), more comfortable rubber: more grippy, better feeling (anyway for me) if you already ordered foam, its not that big difference, and its only a few quid, worth to try more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjewl Posted August 4, 2013 Report Share Posted August 4, 2013 (edited) so nice with lock on and 150mm width, crazy quality for the prize , got a pair on my skye. http://superstar.tibolts.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=60&products_id=524 also, their magnesium flat pedals are amazing! stiff and just 330g / £64 (even lighter with Ti-axle) Edited August 4, 2013 by mjewl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted August 6, 2013 Report Share Posted August 6, 2013 Trialtech foams beat all other grips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willeyeam Posted August 22, 2013 Report Share Posted August 22, 2013 I've got odi longnecks on both my dirt jump bike and fourplay. I think they are great for street trials. For pure trials i would try something else but i would stick them on a Zoot. I haven't tried foam grips though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
