help with my grips

[lloyd]

I have normal foam grips, but they keep sliding off to the middle or to the sides. What could make them stick into place? cuz right now I'm tired of always having to put my grips back into place

 

[JoshKish:)]

i used to have this problem i just bought bmx grips i miss foam grips but i hate throttle grip more than i love foam grips

 

[lloyd]

so itll just stay like that?

hairspray.
i've never used it, but supposedly it lubricates so you can get the grips where you want them, then it dries.
nifty.

You can try hairspray, sometimes the throttle will come back in certain weather though. Or you can try a tube of this stuff - http://www.danscomp.com/367901.php?cat=PARTS

Just put hairspray on the bars and then slide the grips on and wait over night till they dry.

u should use liquid band aid
it drys mad quick and doesnt move

it looks tough, but it's made for rubber. wouldn't it soak into the foam?

Hairspry is shit
You can use WD-40 which is the best and if you never want to remove the grips till they are old you can use doublesided tape which I use for my old grips when they get slippy. only bad thing, if the bar is bent it's very hard to get them off again

 

[gorrilaman]

I used double sided tape. I don't use glue or liquid stuff because it might get messy.

just do what i did take them off, wrap the bar in some electrical tape, and put the grip back on works perfect takes away the throttle grip

hair spray let it set for a day
don't touch it.

i loveee foam grips.

 

[Scooter Mcgee]

for hairspray you need the maximum strength stuff
trust us its hella good

 

[Tristan Mathews]

you can put gel in some work or you can just put super-glue in it for people who can't be stuffed

 

[marvin]

i only have one grip. my friend was riding my scooter and the grip ripped off

 

[killyou]

dude, I had this problem, but I was able to fix it, but it only works with rubber grips.
1. remove your grips
2. clean your bars with windex and a clean rag
3. boil your grips for about 8 minutes to remove all excess greace and oil.
4. wrap your bars in glossy brown packing tape, only on the part where the
grips will be (thin layers, unless you want bigger grips)
5. squeeze the tape tightly on the bars and allow it to bond to the bar.
6. put the grips back on using only the heat from the boiled grips.
7. squeeze the grips tightly to shape your grip how ever you would like.
8. let the grips cool down and bond to the bars
9. this should get rid of the throttle grip almost completely.

use carb cleaner it works soo good it dries so quick that u can barely get the grips on all the way in time

 

[davidross]

use a air copressor and it will take away all of your throttle and its easier to take grips on and off with it

get the eastern grip locks from danscomp and a nice set of bar CAPS, not plugs, to solve your problem
