from Toronto, Ontario, Canada Date Reviewed: February 12, 2007 Strengths: Erogonomic design, soft compound, great cushioning & a funky new texture/pattern. Weaknesses: Hard to clean when you get sand in/on them, wears slower then stock 1996 GT Ricochet grips but faster then Yeti soft grips. Takes up a lot of real estate on your handlebars. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Purchased At: Stock on my 2001 Trek Fuel 90 Disk - Earl's Cycle (closed 2003) Similar Products Used: Stock GT grips on my 1996 GT Ricochet & Yeti soft grips.

from Des Moines, IA Date Reviewed: September 4, 2003 Strengths: Very comfortable, tacky grip that feels good in your hand. I also like the fact that this grip is a tad longer than many others available. Good for those of us with big hands and the "ergo" portion of the middle of the grip helps fill that spot in the palm up. Weaknesses: None that I have detected in the past 18 months. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $12.99 Purchased At: Bike World Similar Products Used: Serfas, SRAM grips, Specialized, Blackwall and a few others. Bike Setup: Trek 8000 Trek 820 Karate Monkey

from Sterling Heights Date Reviewed: April 18, 2002 Strengths: Grips have a ergonomic buldge in the middle that fits the concave shape of your hand. Dual compound allows for zero slippage and a super soft/tacky grip surface. Weaknesses: Super soft grips like this tend to wear very quickly. I toasted these grips in 2 Michigan riding seasons, but it would be very easy to wear them out in one. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Pontiac Lake Loop Duration Product Used: 2 Years Purchased At: Prestige Bicycles Similar Products Used: grip shift grips Bike Setup: 2000 model year Trek 8000, all stock parts (note: these grips came with the bike)
