Grip won't stick to new knurled Renthal bar
#5
(06-18-2015, 01:59 AM)Ferrealls_imp Wrote: I put on some new Renthal ultra-lows. The left hand grip of the bars is knurled unlike the OEM bars. I can't for the life of me get the grips to stick to the knurling. I've tried WD-40, isopropyl, hair spray, silicone and last night I even broke down and used super glue. Still won't stick. It's driving me slowly insane. Anyone have any suggestions?

1st: Slide off the grips and wash them with hot water and laundry detergent and also wash the bars and make sure everything is dry.

2nd:A neat trick I use to put the grips on is to use 4-6 zip ties inside of the grip which will help slide in the grip with less friction and once its in there you pull the zip-ties out one by one and boom! You got your grips installed.

I have the renthal gold low bars on my bike and my grips don't slide and i didn't use adhesive.
