Fed up of listening to grumbling noises from the wife when her grips roll all over the place despite all of my best efforts so want to put some lock-ons on. What grips would people recommend for a lady like paw? I've got shovels for hands so am useless at guessing!

Ergon do some good grips - they're all 'winged' either.

superstar componants [url= http://superstar.tibolts.co.uk/index.php?cPath=60 ]grips [/url]seem fine to me, and I have reasonably small hands.

I had some fireeye ones before, the rubber lasted about a year of not massively regular riding and again, were suitable for small hands.

is this so she can grip onto the ironing board and/or pots and pans better? either that or you've got a big enough kitchen to allow her riding time and i applaud you for your success in life 😉

Cheers, does anyone know if the superstar ones are slimmer than ODI Ruffians?

My other half uses the specialised ones with the single clamping bolt. She seems happy enough with them and not seen any issue with them rotating because they've only got one clamping bolt.

Bontrager do some women specific ones (think they make ones that aren't pink as well).

What Mintman said, or PRO do almost exactly the same ones but a bit cheaper. They're called XCR I believe; single-bolt like the Specializeds.

I've got some Bontrage ones for my missus, very slim, don't believe they were female specific though
