FAQs

What is the primary benefit of these grips?

The primary benefit is exceptional grip longevity and endurance, making them ideal for commuting and touring where wear is a significant factor.

Are these grips suitable for off-road riding?

While the full diamond pattern offers good grip, these grips are primarily designed for street, commuting, and touring use. For aggressive off-road conditions, a softer compound or specialized tread pattern might be more suitable.

What is the hardness of the grip material?

The grips feature a hard rubber compound, optimized for durability and grip endurance.

Do these grips come with a throttle sleeve?

No, these are replacement grips only and do not include a throttle sleeve. You will need to transfer your existing throttle sleeve or purchase one separately if required.

How often should I replace these grips?

Due to their durable construction, these grips are designed for extended use. Replacement frequency depends heavily on mileage, riding conditions, and glove material, but they are engineered to last significantly longer than softer compounds.

Can I use these grips in wet conditions?

Yes, the full diamond pattern is designed to provide reliable grip in various weather conditions, including wet surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Grips are difficult to slide onto the handlebar.

Ensure the handlebar is clean and free of any obstructions. A small amount of isopropyl alcohol or grip glue can help lubricate the inside of the grip for easier installation. Allow alcohol to evaporate before applying glue.

Grips feel too hard.

The hard compound is designed for longevity. Some riders find that breaking in the grips over several rides can slightly improve feel. Ensure your gloves provide adequate cushioning if comfort is a primary concern.

Grips are slipping after installation.

This usually indicates insufficient or improperly cured adhesive. Remove the grips, clean both surfaces, and reapply a quality grip adhesive, ensuring it is fully cured before use. Do not ride until the adhesive is completely set.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
