from Dublin, OH Date Reviewed: March 15, 2001 Strengths: These things are all around terrible. Can't find any strenghts! Weaknesses: First of all, the grip shifter is huge. My pinkie finger is the only finger that doesn't rest on the grip. In the first 3 seconds that I tested the grips it shifted gears when I didn't want it to. I only want my thumb and index finger to touch the shifting part. These grips come standard on my new Giant Warp DS 1. I wanted the shop owner to trim/cut down the grip to my hand size, but you can't; the entire inside of the grip is needed for the grips and the plastic insert to work. So now I have to put my older stuff on the new bike. I also found alot of play in the rear shifter. Also, there is a huge amount of distance in between 9th gear and 1st. It's close to half the circumfrence of the grip. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Dublin Trails Duration Product Used: Tested or demo'ed only Price Paid: $1.00 Purchased At: Demo'd @ Northland Schwinn Similar Products Used: CODA grip shift on Cannondale Super-V. Really I don't like the grip shift systems. I was going to give these AssRams a try, but not if I can't trim the length of the shifter back. Bike Setup: 2001 Warp DS 1, Hayes HMX-1 Mechanicals, Marzoochi Z5.

from solana, ca USA Date Reviewed: February 8, 2001 Strengths: Easy to know what gear your in. Great for beginners and individuals missing digits. Weaknesses: Accidental shifting occurs to much because the shifting part of the grips are to long. If you have to get off and walk because of a slip of the shifter, you'll be pissed off! Also the ends of the grips don't do anything but slip off.
