This may be a silly question ... I have just bought a pair of new Bonty XXXxxxXXX-lite Grips to fit my carb-bars. Is there any easy way to remove the old set, or do I have to accept the next hour is going to involve a lot of cursing and scratching?
The previous set of grips went on with the old 'hair spray' method...
Any guidance would be appreciated
Stanley knife
hairspray, trust me, spray inside the grip and keep twisting and it will come off nps
Im bald, but I use hairspray. 😆
Use a thin screwdriver or an old spoke _carefully_ to lift up the edge of the old grip and try and squirt some water or GT85 under there. Wriggle the loose bit of grip around and you should find that the fluid you've squirted in there spreads around a bit and loosens the whole grip.
That, or carefully slice through it with a Stanley knife taking care not to go into the carbon.
: P
I use a chopstick to work up under the grip, spray in some gt85 and twist it round.
something to wedge under the grip and then spray some wd40 under the grip and then simply twist off...(make sure you have the nozzle fitted to the wd40 can)
Has anyone mentioned that you just lift up the edge of the grip with a screwdriver or skewer and spray some WD40 in the work it in yet?
Thought not.
Thanks folks! Sorted
GT85 off
VO5 on.....!
Dont forget to use the GHD's to smooth the grips out. 😆
GT85 off
Is this the creation of a new insult?
