...does anyone have any good tricks to get A'ME grips on to bars (relatively) easily? It's always a major mission for me and I end up with blisters on my hands from the pushing and tugging!!
-
WD40. slides on, and does something that corrodes the inside surface of the grip to make them stick.... within minutes.
-
liberally spray the inside of the grip with hairspray and a touch on the bars and slide into place.
be sure to do it quickly before the hairspray dries. once there dry they wont move.
I have done this to my grips since I was twelve and never had a problem.
too get the back off slide a thin screwdriver down the inside and waggle around while spraying GT85 then just twist them off

tap water..plain & simple :daumenhoch:
-
wd40 inside the grip to get them on, and to get em off perfect, to re-sell maybe, fill up your sink with hot tap water leave em to heat up and soak for 5 mins and they should slide rite off.

Sure for Men deodorant works for me and it makes it smell nice :daumenhoch:

i use spray on carpet adhesive. you have to cut the fookers of when you want to replace them, but they never ever budge, which is good if its a rider.....
