Right, due to thumb injury I'm trying twisties.
How do you set them up? Had my first ride yesterday and I'm still trying to get them set up right.
So far I cut the grips to make them the same length as a standard grip. Wondering if more grip so I can have my hands on "normal" grip when I'm not changing. Also did you move your brakes in?
Most of the above is just down to personal preference
For me I use a 3/4 length grip and run my levers as close as i can to my normal position
Cheers, I used some old grips first before I commit to the new ones.
I'd agree with 3/4 grips too, short grips place your hand on the shifters all the time which I don't like, a full grip and they're too far away.
I use the odi lockons for gripshift and haven't had to worry about this issue.
the 90mm ones?

I know they exist but didn't really answer the question. Had some more hands on playing about with some others riding them and I reckon as I have big hands needs to be slightly bigger (which may mean wider bars 🙂 ) As it's a bit of an experiment I was just cutting down old grips to see. Not even sure I'll stay with the gripshift but see how it goes. It's only cost about £20 to try so not going to bother buying new grips yet.
