FAQs

What makes the '1/3 Waffle' design unique?

The 1/3 Waffle design removes one row of the traditional waffle pattern, increasing the area covered by the diamond pattern. This allows for more hand contact on the diamond surface while fingers interact with the remaining waffle grid.

Are these grips suitable for all types of riding?

These grips are designed for enhanced control and comfort, making them suitable for motocross, trail riding, and general off-road use. Their super soft compound prioritizes comfort and grip.

Do I need special tools to install these grips?

You will need grip glue (sold separately) and potentially a tool to remove old grips. A clean workspace and patience are key.

How often should I replace my grips?

Grip replacement frequency depends on riding conditions and usage. Inspect your grips regularly for wear, especially the 1/3 waffle pattern and diamond surfaces. Replace them when they become significantly worn, lose their grip, or feel damaged.

What is the benefit of 'Single Density' construction?

Single density means the entire grip is made from one material compound. This provides a consistent feel and performance across the entire grip surface.

Can I use these grips with heated grips?

These grips are typically designed for use without heated elements. Installing heated grips underneath may affect their fit and performance.

Troubleshooting

Grips feel loose or are spinning on the handlebars.

This usually indicates insufficient or uncured grip glue. Remove the grip, clean both surfaces, reapply appropriate grip glue, and allow full curing time before use.

Difficulty sliding grips onto the handlebar.

Ensure the handlebar is clean and free of debris. A small amount of rubbing alcohol or a grip-installation lubricant (ensure it's compatible with your chosen grip glue) can help, but do not use anything that will interfere with the glue's adhesion once dry.

Grips feel sticky or tacky after installation.

This may be due to uncured grip glue residue. Allow additional curing time in a well-ventilated area. If the issue persists, the grip may need to be replaced.
