I saw 'em, I want 'em!
Anybody using these- and what do you think? Of course you would have to be using some alternate form of throttle control. I use a throttle lever, so this is an option for me.
Thanks!

I have some real cork grips on my Cycle-Truck. They are nice to grip on but tended to not wanna stay on the bars. I looped a piece of electrical tape over the bar end and the length of the grip as a sort of shim. Dont slide off now. I like um.

Funny you should mention it- I just saw these on ebay last night and was gonna post them here but figured it would just get moved into some other category- and I hate that

apparently the chinese have been busy making more new things while we shoot at or sh!t on each other:

These are all 7/8 on the one grip and then 1" on the throttle side:

Pretty cool but don't know what a metal grip would be like
