Title: Oury grips
Post by: HUTCHMAN on January 30, 2011, 06:23 PM: I'm on the lookout for a pair of black Oury grips,are there originals and re-pops about? BMX and MX types? what are the differences? MX i assume have a larger internal diameter for the twist grip or have i got EVERYTHING wrong. any advice please?

Post by: markyp on January 30, 2011, 06:40 PM: i think oury have always made the grip.the only differance in the new to the old is that one of them(not sure which) has a ribbed section that butts up to the flange whereas the other is smooth,and yes be careful not to buy mx grips cos of the twist grip :daumenhoch:

Post by: sid1972 on January 30, 2011, 06:51 PM: put some black ones up for sale earlier and removed them as they are MX type - I had no idea, they fitted fine with hairspray but one hole is slighty larger than the other (is that not always the way :2funny:)

:-X

£7 if anyone needs any! ;)

Post by: sid1972 on January 30, 2011, 06:59 PM: tbh mate, they fitted fine nice and solid - but I do use hairspray, they never moved once it had gone off 8)

The OGK mach didn't have the ribbed bit and that was a spec grip on a few old school bikes bitd.

The very early oury grips (early 70's up to about 79) had no ribs and then 79/80 to about 82 they had the ribs and then they went bust. The new remakes also have the ribs as Glynn said.

Post by: BENDYCAT ELEVENTEEN on January 31, 2011, 02:00 PM: side note :

i have a set of the old ones and they feel like like right rubber, not so powdery as some other grips but work well

i also bought a set for a mates ride in red of the new one's on ebay - they have a very soft feel and not solid rubber feel of the old - with in 6 months they got sticky and started to degrade - they almost felt like one of those sticky rubber toy things that you throw up a window and watch it walk down it !

cheers B ;)
