I'm after a lock-on, not too thin with decent padding to absorb some downhill shock, had a wrist operation back in Jan and finding the stock zesty ones a little harsh, was thinking ODI Ruffians?

I use ODI Rogue Lock-Ons, thinking they might not be padded enough for you?

ODI TLD ones, however, have had a couple of sets on back order for months though can't find any in anything other than purple locally ๐Ÿ™

ODI Intense here. Nice shape, a bit Goldilocks (Not too thin, not too thick, etc.) and then have a semi-flange. Which is nice.

ODI cross trainers here.

Only problem I had was that the lock rings on two of my sets were made of cheese and I had to drill and re-tap the screw holes and use oversized screws.

But I still like them.

For uber-amounts of padding/comfort the Oury lock-ons are really good. In fact I may have a set kicking around you can have for a few quid, in good nick, as I've found that I prefer a narrower profile.

Drop me a line if you like.

Really like the ODI Troy Lees - I have soft office boy hands, and they usually blister a lot on DH trips, but with the ODIs, I didn't suffer at all in Finale Ligure recently, despite four solid days DH
