I used to use the renthal mediums but now use progrip 724 as there comfier. To get my grips on and stick i used good old pritt stick but you have to be quick as it dries pretty quick, easy to get them off as well.

im pretty interested in getting a set of medium renthals (im going to try the pritt stick method :up: )

Called greame france and hes a bit more pricey than ebay. (by £5, every little counts!) lol

is there a particular size im after as the ones on ebay look like there for Motocross bikes only?

Could someone link me to a set of grips? :geek:

thanks

Pritt stick keeps em on the bars. Previously i used hairspray, but that can be hit and miss as the grips sometimes do not take. It does not last long either.

Got my renthal grips on today. Took the bike out for a spin and its a lot more comfortable on the wrists, and the grips are thinner than my old ones which gives a better feel.
Great cheap modifaction, looks good too!
(p.s, the pritt stick method works well!!)
