fyfey Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 Never tried foam grips, I'm using some DMR Zip Grips which seem pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

core Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 rubber i find alot more grip, foam last longer i think but i will never stop using rubber, my next set of grips will be a set of "Jimmy le van" grips they are super thin with an awesomely grippy cork style grip and flanges aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny_cartledge Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 I ride rubber grips at the moment, but i would like to ride foams, as my hands hurt sometimes!Does anyone know where to get long lasting foam grips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolo Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 My sisters boyfriend was using foam then he switched to rubber. By the looks of things they look alot more 'grippy'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liam_thornton Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 I prefer rubber because i like to be able to grip onto something, but with foam your hand just sinks into it and it feels really horrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedimindtricks Posted February 18, 2007 Report Share Posted February 18, 2007 (edited) Foam grips seem to be quite good for trials, my buddy runs them and doesent seem to have many problems with them, although if your a sweaty bugger you might not want to run them, it'd be like glueing on sponges On the other hand, being a bmxer, i have to say that the amount of quality rubber grips out there really is quite shocking. There are so many of them, which are..A) Long lastingB ) Available in many different thicknesses, lengths, etc.C) Cheap. Or cheap enough.I would put in one of those "Do what you want" kind of quotes, but you came here for advice, so i gave it.Cya.
