Title: S&M ODI grips *F*CKIN AWESOME*
Post by: muttley on March 14, 2010, 10:20 AM: Bagged some of these bad boys yesterday and they are sweeet. Clever but one of those 'why hasnt someone made these before' things.

Basically the grip slides straight on your bars (no hairspray needed) and have a flange at each end wich you put the clamp on then tighten up the little allen key bolts.

JOB DONE :4_17_5:

Post by: magna13 on March 14, 2010, 09:10 PM: Used to have these, nice feel, broke instantly though! be warned of the end flange... does not like crash's... after that i bought some United Repeat grips for a fiver which i find are 10x better!

Post by: Dex Dexter on April 16, 2010, 11:57 AM: I love these but then I ride tracks in the wet.

I also love the feel of these - but they wear quite easily.

Also found Stodgy to be cheapest supplier of these.

depends which grip design you have though, I had someplain opnes and they felt hard like you say, but now I have the Intense branded ones and the Intense logo is quite raised and soft and makes it feel like a dual density grip, which I like

was thinking about the S&M ones for my dirt bike
