bikerboysam1 Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 I am loooking for some new grips at the moment, and many people have reccommended ODI grips.I have looked around and managed to find many different ODI grips, so I was just wondering which one's to go for. Also I would like them to lock on.Thanks a lot,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 Ruffians! nuff said, last for ages give great grip and are comfy! 3 weeks, down to the plastic core with the lock-ons. Didn't have a lot of luck with the normies either.Renthals for the win. Similar pattern to the Ruffians, but a little thinner and last for approx. forever. Cheaper too Google "Renthal ATV grips". Should be about £8 or so. Get 'em in soft. 'cos they're made for quads, who'll typically have riders using gloves, they're slightly harder than the "soft" you'd expect, but they're still comfy as hell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 odi longneck bmx grips, cut the flanges off and the jobs done. They feel so nice, unless like me you manage to be able to turn the grips sticky within a couple of months. They'll last for years though.

mike Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 Gutted, well mine are coming up to their second birthday Your telling me you've had your grips for nearly 2 years? you must ride very little, cos i've worn down a pair of the 'Normies' in less than a month, and i doubt they are much different, what gloves do your wear? must be magical or somthing Mike!!!

Jaffacakes Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 I would go for echo grips they have a really nice feel but after having them for about 3 weeks (of none stop riding) the grip has gone and when my hands sweat I slip off. I cut the ends off them with a hot knife when I got them and put the grips on then put my bar ends on. It makes them last that bit longer and protect's your bars . I would defiantly not go for foam grips though. My calluses ripped a pair of Monty foams to shreds in a day, Best £7 I have ever spent .

poopipe Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 I like the ones you get with the t-pro. They've got a half mushroom/ half knurled effect thing going on. - ask tarty or someone if they can order them in, I doubt they cost more'n about 4 quid.

bikerboysam1 Posted January 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Thanks a lot guys but I already have the 'ODI Ruffians MX Grips' now and they are absolutely amazing. I don't know how long they will last, but we will just have to wait and see...Thanks,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
