What do you have for grips? I never thought much about it until my grips loosened so much that they now twist pretty freely. Looking to pick up some Oury lock-ons.

I think I have oury lock ons, will check when I get home. Like the so far.
Oury lock-ons. I love them. My old grips not only twisted all over the place, but I like my brake levers in-board of the grips a bit, the grips would always move inwards and screw up my hand position.
I got the Oury's last year, they're already starting to show some signs of wear, but I think they'll last a bit longer. They're pretty big to fit my big hands and very soft and grippy.

I thought you had some ODI grips? Oury uses the ODI lock-on system, but are not the same thing.

That could be them too, I think the end covers have 3 letters written in white. I think I mentioned what I have on the forum somewhere, who wants to search my posts to find it?
I'll confirm what I have when I get home.

Thanks, now I don't have to leave work early since I couldn't stand the suspense of not knowing.
LOL, you're welcome.

Did you order the Oury's? What else did you get to use up the shipping costs?

Yup and the 661 knee guards. I paid extra for shipping - 2 day - cuz I'm an impatient asshole. :lol:

I like the larger diameter of the Oruy's. Normal sized grips always seem too small to me.

Lock ons are the way to go.
So, how are you liking the new grips Greg?

Love the Ourys. The extra girth ( :blink: ) took a bit of getting used to though... :lol: It's great that they don't spin and they are really grippy.

Hehe, he said "girth".
