Product Information
Full details
The Renthal G086 MX Diamond/Waffle Soft Grips are precision-engineered for motocross and enduro enthusiasts who demand superior control and hand comfort. Featuring a dual-textured design that balances high-traction waffle patterns with a smooth palm area, these grips minimize blister formation during aggressive riding. While the soft compound offers exceptional feedback and vibration dampening, riders should be aware that softer rubber compounds typically wear faster than harder alternatives under heavy use.

FAQs
Are these grips suitable for all handlebar sizes?
These grips are standard size and fit most motocross and enduro handlebars.
How do I remove the old grips?
Use a utility knife to carefully cut the old grips off, ensuring you do not score the aluminum or steel handlebar beneath.
Can I use safety wire with these grips?
Yes, Renthal grips are designed to accommodate safety wire grooves if you prefer extra security beyond just adhesive.
How long should I wait before riding after installation?
Wait at least 12 to 24 hours to ensure the grip glue has fully cured and created a secure bond.
Why are these grips softer than my stock ones?
The soft compound is an intentional design choice to provide better comfort, vibration dampening, and rider feedback.
Troubleshooting
Grips twisting or slipping during use
Ensure the bar was cleaned thoroughly before installation and that enough high-quality grip glue was applied.
Grips feeling sticky or tacky
This is a characteristic of the soft compound; clean with mild soap and water to remove debris that may make the tackiness feel excessive.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first remove your old grips and ensure the handlebar surface is completely free of old adhesive residue or debris. Clean the bars with a degreaser. Apply a quality handlebar grip glue to the bar and slide the Renthal grips into position. Allow the glue to cure fully—typically 12 to 24 hours—before riding. To maintain the grips, wash them with mild soap and water after muddy rides to prevent premature degradation of the rubber compound. Avoid using harsh chemicals or petroleum-based cleaners which can compromise the structural integrity of the soft rubber.
