Hello, welcome to Fresh Good Friday 732. What do we have here? We have the most famous
0:05
handlebar grip of the modern era, the DMR death grip. This is the DMR death grip to the sequel
0:30
As you can see, the broad pattern design is the same as ever, which they won't mess with that formula
0:41
So you've got your mushroom things for comfort, your fingers and your thumbs. Little finger box there for grippy grips and knurled all over for traction
0:48
So what's new? The ends, really. Little encapsulated end pieces there with DMR stamped on
0:56
And single collar lock on that won't fall off because it's in held
0:59
by a little flanged out core so it won't drop off and go under the
1:03
fridge, freezer, whatever's in your garage or wherever you choose to do these things
1:08
Lots of different colours. And they need to be hammered on with a soft mallet, by the way
1:16
Still got that's not everyone knows about. So you put them on, don't dong, don't, don't. And then nip them up, which is a lot safer
1:22
than having two lock rings on the end. And it also rest your hands
1:27
Everyone rides on the end of the grips, don't they? When they're riding around. Grab that
1:31
Now, different colors, different compounds. These black ones I have here, let me get this right, I think it's well soft
1:39
They're called Super Soft. Super Soft Race compound, 15A, if you like, you shore, durometers
1:45
We also got the regular one that is soft and that 20A Oh I know hang on Oh might be wrong No that is right That is right Super soft
1:59
Yeah, super soft. 15A, that's well soft. Regular soft is 20. And then you've got these gum ones in 25A
2:07
which is if you want 25A, like a mid compound for durability, I suppose, and toughness
2:12
You have to get them in that raw things. There's also two diameters
2:19
Let's call them thick or thin for millimeter fans out there. 31.3 or 29.8
2:26
So between all that stuff, a lot of options. Pricewise, I'm desperately trying to find out
2:34
Death grip race, which is a super softies, 27 quid for a pair
2:40
All the others, 24 quid. They're 135 million lengths, and you know
2:46
they're brendog's grip, aren't they? So you too can get robbed of Rampage if you were to get these
2:54
That's all for now. Bye-bye. Did you like that colour
3:20
That? No, it looks like the pub ceiling cover colour from the 80s
3:27
I thought it looked like, I don't know, like the handle of a crutch from NHS or something
3:35
Yeah, it's got a weird NHS vibe. A lot of course to diet. People like it all
3:41
People like raw, really. They look quite good with a certain bike, I imagine. Yep
3:46
There you go. Doink
