anyone do them? I like to have my hand over the end of the bar and the clamp digs in 🙁 want a grip that clamps inboard and has rubbe rover the ends
MTFU, the collars don't dig in that much
Them Atherton ones are like that.
my giant ones are like that but they're quite thin
GW FO it presses on a nerve and hurts!
clearly 😉
lol
specialized grips have collar on the 'inside' only, few diff patterns and colours
bontrager ones are inboard collar only.
Bontrager do some as well

The grips they do for left handed riders have the collar on the "outside" only.

Rocca's FTW! [url= http://www.cyclestore.co.uk/productDetails.asp?productID=14463 ]linky[/url] Pic slighty misleading, the metal locking bit goes inboard, and the black plastic endplug goes at the other (outboard) end.
Doh! Fitted mine with the collar on the outside, and I am not left handed.
the spesh ones are great to use.
won't it twist a bit on the free end?
will they work well with my fsa carbon bars?

Are you left handed? 😉
Do they absolutely, positively have to be lock-on grips?
I bought some ESI grips (reviewed in STW mag a while ago) from eBay on a whim and I'm a total convert now; silicon rubber - absolutely non-slip and immensely comfortable. I do know what you mean about the outer collar digging in.
Been running the Bontrager ones for ages on carbon bars, comfy, no twisting issues.
househusband - how are they fitted?

Better than you, sunshine! And we can use parts of our brains that you never can. That's what makes us cleverer, you see. Greater proportion of Geniuses are left-handers than in Humanity as a whole.
Einstein, Leonardo DaVinci, Jimi Hendrix, people like that... 😉

Spesh Body Geometry 'ergonomic' grips locking collars are shit. The collar won't do up tight enough without rounding off the cheese bolt, then you can't get the bastard out again.
They slide on easily with application of isopropyl alcohol - this then evaporates and the grips are well and truly stuck on.
Pah, managed to come up with the theory of relativity, but didn't know to keep his outside foot down 🙄
I hope they work just bought some househusband 🙂
