Can't recall who told me about this grip company and how great these things work, but you know I had to try a set out! A friend of mine from this forum laughed so hard and said they look like they are made for Mickey Mouse hands!

Yes I know they look crazy but have to say they do feel cool. Hell I only paid $12 for them after all. I have not ridden with them yet but will provide some feedback once I do. The guy at G2 Ergonomics was extremely friendly and had some neat Ducati throttle cams. :D

whats that?

Just like the insole in a shoe to support your arch maybe? They are a bit wacky,but let us know how they work,they could be very effective. I went on a really testing ride yesterday lots of fast bumps and honestly my hands were hurting. Hope to sort that out when suspension set up properly. Take it easy old chap:)
 
They look wild but give a comfort look, are they? Btw I can see how your friend came to that conclusion, i mean they have a big M on them after all!!
 
How do you grip the throttle like a screwdriver with these? These seem great for riders that wrongly extend their arms and use the bars for support. I can't see these being useful.

They are actually trials bike grips. Absolutely no idea what you mean by "how do you grip the throttle like a screwdriver" dude. I wish I could find the data study they did on these and how it showed they release pressure and tension in the human hand and arm. Oh well, if you dont think they are useful I will cut them off today. :D
 
Agreed !

Ciao my friend !

I totally agree with you and could honestly fill a page with those kind of pics!
I think we tried that once here and I ended up deleting them all after a smart ass comment. Back to the grips.......lol....................:eek:

These are supposed to "take weight off your wrist and arms", but thats the way you're supposed to ride these bikes to begin with. They are just giving a place to put pressure on that is different from your wrists/etc - which is not the correct riding position for the bike. (which is also why the comfort seat works counter to proper riding position as well).

You are supposed to twist the throttle like a screwdriver grip. That is pretty much the universal consensus on how to twist the throttle. The big knobby thing on the end of this grip kind of precludes this from happening.
 
All they need to finish the look are some tassles hanging from the bar end weights. My friends daughter has some just like these on her trike. :p
