Yes they are DMR Loccd grips.
Thanks for the compliments you ****!
I wanted a Rockhopper when I was younger and never got one. This bike is meant to look like a 90's bike. Purple anodizing, clear crud catchers etc. Could do with picking up a Daves Chain Device now!I like that orange sc. Very tidy! Where did you get the red chain?

I tried to get those DMR's for a while but they were sold out. The bike looks eccentric, I secretly like it.

Thanks catflees. Ive just got the bike the way I wanted it when I was 15! Only difference is the tyres. Back in the day, it was biscuit coloured Panaracers I was after. I couldn't find any, so went a bit daft with the Halos.
I got the DMR grips from here.

In stock and quick delivery! I think theyre really comfy with or without gloves. They seem a good fit for my hands. The Spesh ones that were on it were way too thin.

I remember those purple ano bits... get in, bring on more!

I think I will rob!
Im on the hunt for purple ano disc rotor bolts and purple headset. Or perhaps, although it wont match, a Rasta Chris King headset might be an option. A wee nod to my second favourite past-time as a teenager!
I've seen a purple ano stem that I almost went for. Cant decide whether to go white or purple with the stem though.
It is all a bit ridiculous, but it's fun.

it may be fun but when its used as intended its brown
Posted 3 months ago # -
True. I wasn't getting a brown bike though!

Good work, too much black and white on bikes nowadays.

Thanks! I honestly didn't think it would get a good response at all.

photo (6) by passtherizla, on FlickrI've posted this a few times recently, but here goes...
unfortunately you can't really see the purple hubs, rear skewer, stem, spacers, purple grips.. I bought the wheels and purple bits off a member on here, the frame also has ano purple bottle cage bolts and pannier blanks.

Could be the solution to bike theft these.

Good use of red on that Takisawa!
I dunno dee66. I'd be off with the on one for all those lovely purpley bits!

Can't quite make out who makes that bike or those wheels.
Anyhoo, here's my effort. Purple bars went on shortly after this photo.

Picked this one up on Friday, have wanted one for years!
Needs a good clean and a general fettle, but first impressions suggest it'll be a grin inducing pub bike.

Another beaut! Mind and get some bar end plugs in case of a drunken fall!

I rather like the green Orange.

That is,by some margin,the worst looking bike I have ever seen.
Unless you have a lotus/JPS fetish that is....which I don't.
