Superstars are good but the lock-on bit isn't as good as the likes of ODI. But they are cheap and there are lots of gay colours to choose from

I really like my new OURY grips, mine aren't the lock on version but they are very comfortable, and are also available in lock on version with ODI lock rings.

Deity Enoki grips are really nice, they have a classic "mushroom" style grip. They do have a flange (giggity) on the inboard edge, but it's easy to cut off with a stanley knife if you don't like it.

Never really felt the need for lock-ons. Currently running Oury and Race Face Good/Evils with no slippage and lots of comfort

WTB dual compound trail grips/soft, have had them on every bike since 1999, becoming harder to find locally but CRC always have good stock

ODI Cross Trainers are the best by far.... ODI lock on is just unbeatable.

ODI Rogues but my favourites are Odyssey Gedda 2 bmx grips which I'd use if they didn't get throttle grip so easily. Failing that the old superstar mushrooms were good, don't do em any more though. Apart from the convenience I don't really like lock ons as much as "normal" ones, they feel much harder.

ESI racers edge, not lock on but better than any lock on I have used.
No slips and no throttleing even when wet, amazing.

Superstar Excel, thicker and wider than standard but still soft and sticky. Not the longest lasting grips but they're cheap to replace.

ODI Troy Lees. They're sticky like a sticky tyre, confy, have little flanges you never knew you needed, and are just ACE.

Specialized XC - look rather like those Pro Atherton jobbies.
Got some on-one's too, dont like them much.

Got big hands- sunlines seem to fit ok, Charge ones waaay too thin...
What are the thickest grips?
Posted 4 months ago # -
Lizard skins 'Peaty' lock-ons are pretty thick. I have freakishly big hands and find them perfect.
