[Closed] Hope Grips

From the report off a mate today. Terrible.

He did the bolts up to the correct torque and they slipped on the bar. He torqued them a tiny bit more and they stripped. And no he's lost a bar end cap. He's busy buying some ODIs now. 😆

I like mine but I was lifting the bike over a gate a few weeks back and the end cap caught and fell off.

Snapped one side of the actual grip where the end cap slots in clean off. I jammed it in and its stayed on so far......

The actual grips are really nice and grippy but, despite being a Hope fan, I don't think I will buy another pair as you have to replace the lot when worn out.

Was literally about to order a set from bike tart, back to google to find something else now.

I fancied some because the grip area looks to extend to the very end of the bar...

Up off now tho.... 😐

Mine have been ok so far. No slipping, nice feel and survived punching a few rocks and trees already. I chose them because I tend to let the edge of my hands hang off the ends and outer lockrings usually just cause me annoyance.
