Looking for new grips for the tourer. I run cane creek ergo barends and don't get on with ergon style grips all the time, so just a standard grip, but something comfy for long days.

Ritchey WCS foam.
Cheap, comfy, simple.

They do 2 shapes, I like the simple ones rather than the 'Ergo' bulged ones.

been trying loads recently on my jones bars.

started with esi chunkys..which are ok but slippy when wet.
went to ergons, which I love with flat bars but are awefull with jones.
went to cork bar wrap, which is ace and comfy, but is hard to secure and comes loose on the ends.
back on to esi chunkys while the weather is dry.

Currently have foam grips, but they're cheap eBay versions. Maybe worth trying proper ritchey ones?

Got esi chunky on the mtb, they saved my hands in the alps last year so I'll swap them over, see how I get on.... Which means new grips for the mtb. Anyone compare SS locking silicone grips to the esi ones?
