Raptor Grips & Hardware

[RaptorGrips]

I apologize if I broke any forum rules. Is this entire thread against forum rules or just mentioning the Twitter/Facebook giveaway? I figured posting news about the company and asking you guys questions on what you'd like to see from us wouldn't really be considered as advertising. Pardon me if I'm mistaken. Don't want to overstep forum rules.



EDIT:
So I have a question for you guys. Are metal bar ends something you'd like to see from us?

 

[Bear Grylls]

Thats kinda favoritism.

Knew someone would say this.

Well guess what, your advertising for your company to, Would you like me to take care of that? My guess is no.

I mean i was expecting for it to get locked way long ago, i find the advertising rule dumb. I dont really care. I was just asking.

And josh,
Yes metal bar ends would be great.

I mentioned metal bar ends to the company and it seemed like they were unsure if they would be worth it. Since their plastic bar ends are so strong. But I believe if they offered them separately, that they could be popular.

I personally don't care. If anyone who cares locks this then i guess oh well. I dont think its advertising really, just supplying info.

Everyone i know, would prefer metal over plastic. I have bad luck with plastic ones the outside always rips off, and the rest gets stuck in my bars.

You're thinking of caps, not bar ends. Completely different. Our bar ends don't break like the ODI or plenty other companies caps. Our caps are also made with a higher density material, so they can take a beating. Where most caps are soft plastic that breaks pretty quickly.

Oh and by the way, i rode some raptor grips today, They felt really nice.

 

[RaptorGrips]

I'm excited for you guys to see the new grip in a couple months. They feel really nice too.

Just a question, where are your guys grips made? Do you guys run through another grip company or what?

Nope, we manufacture them ourselves.

I got a package from Raptor today. It included every color in each grip styling. And get this, white and blue colored Claw and Scale grips. Must say, if I wasn't testing the new grips, I would be all over the white Scales in a second.


EDIT: White is seen here, and blue is just under the black, hard to see.
