    …are?

    I have ODI rogues but I want to go thicker again. I went from ODI Ultimates to the Rogues and noticed a great improvement in pain reduction from long downhills up to the first finger joint but I could do with a bit thicker again. Use XL/XXL glove size.

    Are the Oury grips thicker than the Rogues?

    Yep, Ourys are thick, but Sunline Thicks are thicker.

    You need Ergon grips – thick and comfy.

    and totally crap for allowing you to shift your weight around the bike.

    Oury are very big. Also just check your lever positions, as almost everyone I see who complains of wrist/hand problems has their bike set up badly.

    Sunline thicks are very nice, I've got them on a couple of bikes.

    Big Pete is correct, if you have shovel hands then North Shores are MASSIVE. I'm confused why Ergon grips would stop anyone moving about on a bike at all – are they supplied with a free gypsy curse these days?

    @nina – a round grip allows you to rotate your wrist easily around the bars and move from side to side, without being interfered with by fixed bar ends or big platform grips. Fine if you are static on the bike, but otherwise they are useless. Loads of punters buy them, thats fine, but that doesn't make them right!

    Lizard Skins North Shore.
    FOR ME they are more comfy than Ergons.
    Just bought a spare set on Ebay, £7.08 inc postage.
