RE: Handle Grip Options
#22

It's done. Grip Puppies provided just the right width. Thanks for the suggestion!

FWIW, The package said to use soapy water, so I did... Not Windex. I'm glad I stuck with soap. Windex has ammonia in it and smells nasty.

It was somewhat of a pain to get them on, but after I got the first one on, the second one went on much easier.

I removed the weighted bar ends, slipped the stock grips about halfway off so they could be compressed into the center of the Grip Puppy, then eased the stock grip and GP back onto the bar.

I used a long skinny flathead screwdriver to get the GPs over the end of the stock grips, and by using a circular motion, I was able to ease the GP into position.

I didn't need to cut anything. There was maybe an extra centimeter extra slack at first, but I was all able to compress the slack over the stock grip. It makes the GP feel a lil' bit softer.

I'm happy with how it turned out. Thanks again!
