Mushroom Grips Removal. I need help!!

(1/4) > >>

moley:
I have some ODI Mushroom Grips.

White grip with the blue ribbed insert.

The trouble with these is the grip is hard and less flexible than most rubbery grips.

I can't get the fookers off!!

I dont want to damage the grips as I want to stick them on some other bars.

Somebody please help me,  your my only hope!!  :daumenhoch:

cherrypicker:
Use the force  ;D

Tried hot water from the kettle, washing up liquid, WD40 all the old but goldies?

moley:
Cheers lad!!  :daumenhoch:

I'll get some wd40 and give it a go.

I've managed to get all my other grips off okay.

But these are being stubborn!!  >:(

southern andy:
I've just taken some signature mushrooms off to replace with A'mes.

I slowly pushed a small flat screwdriver down the side and squirted WD40 down, gave them a little twist and carried on the procedure pushing the driver down a bit more each time.

The second one came off harder than the first which resulted in the bike bike falling over as i was pulling really hard, the end of the bars then put a hole in the laminated flooring.  >:( >:(

At least i got them off.

Damon:
Doing the same tonight to get my Oakley B2's fitted.  The screw driver can scratch the bars so be careful.  I use a sealed chopstick, much gentler than the screwdriver.
