Mmmmmm - one my bike tonight - BTW I know some people don't like white grips so this maybe not for you (in fact a year ago I didn't 😉 )
Edit: And I know they won't stay white 😉
My only prob with white grips is they stop being white grips after the first time you use them 😉
never understood the whole white grips thing, as per Jamie they turn dirty brown after a couple of rides. If you know they won't stay white, why buy white ones? I think it just looks naff... 😳
That's not to say they don't look lovely now 😀
My only problem with white grips is they look ****ing awful.
nail brush and muc off after every ride keeps mine white enough.

**** me, do you floss your cassette too 😯
Heavy lock on grips on a lightweight race build. 😡
Cleaning grips after every ride WTF.

This [b]is[/b] STW.
I have some (now) off-white grips that came with my Zesty if anyone has a grip-cleaning fetish that needs satisfying.
Kingtut - heavey - really?
Also not a race build - it's for an all in one build - race, XC, Bit of techno as well 🙂
BTW just to keep to form I have built up my new "all in one build" with a fair bit of helicopter tape on the frame - There you go I am anal enough to clean my grips with a bit of bleach 😉

Yup, around 116g compared to 40g or less for foams.
+ bar end plugs if were being a weight weenie KT 🙂
Edit - 106 g / pair (on my scales)
Don't think I am going to notice 70g
FR.
Looking forward to seeing the finished build pics
🙂
Solo - Nearly done - Still need to put new bits on tonight (grips and SP collar), index, align valve/rim decal and poss trim fr hydraulic cable & bleed (if I can get the olive off without cutting), trim steerer a little 🙂
Maybe a piccy tomorrow? 🙂
Yeh Yeh yawn yawn Kinesis Boy 😉

I use a solvent spray and airline to clean my cassette - works a treat 🙂

Nice in a 'pimped' style. I'm off down the shops - I've grip envy.

Cling film around the grips. Sorted 😉
Good choice FB.
Spot on. Nice pic of the new-build on a Friday would be good.
Then, weekend shake-down ride.
