Allergic to Grips

(1/4) > >>

Gary72:
Went over rOm today, 2nd time out for my son on his new bike and he is allergic to his grips. His hands come up in loads of little blisters all over his palms same thing happened last week when he rode it.
We know he is allergic to certain types of paint that schools use, So we have to supply his own to take to school with him, found this out at a young age when he was doing hand painting.
Anyone else had this problem??????

lazychubs:
thats not good gary
cant he wear gloves
or does that not help

Gary72:
He can, but never seems to want too, even today he only put them on for about 30 mins. Made him wear them later when we rode from our house too my mums in Barking. About 6 miles????

Not good for me 100PSI and crap pavements :LolLolLolLol:

TwoBobRob:
I think you might struggle to find grips made from different materials that are actually any good....  Just gonna have to train him up to wear the gloves I reckon.  Do you wear gloves yourself?

Gary72:
Yes, I wear gloves.
Strange thing is he has never had any problems before. Think I will contact Hoffman bikes and try and find out what they are made from, although knowing the yanks they will probably set the lawyers on me thinking I'm going to sue them.
Will also take his old grips off and fit them.
