Grips.. POLL

[Riley Hughes]

okay so bike grips, or foamies? and i mean pretend that foamies didn't slide around and if they looked better and stuff, what would you prefer?

 

[Peaceful]

foamies. thats what i ride. would be cool if foamies were shaped like bmx grips. and mine dont slide around at all, thats probably why i like them.

if they're on stock bars then they probably wont
but like on aftermarket bars they suck

i can rip a pair of foamies in a day of good riding

i do have after market bars. but the cross bar is the car jack lever. haha. so it might be a little bigger then a normal size bar. still i <3 foamies.

foam grips just tear apart and have no grp the only nice thing about them is that there isn't as much impact but overall bike gris are way better ODI LONGNECKSSSS

just get thick bmx soft krayton rubber grips. they feel like foamies, and preform better, yet still rip easy. aaron ross sig grips are a good example.

From motorcycle grips to locked down.
It works so well on foamies


Edit: I prefer bike grips though, adam haucks specifically.

foamies are better for bars and anything that you have to catch your bars with.

All 3 of these are the first thoughts why foamies suck and everyone automatically says BMXERZ GRIPZ. Well, I understand there is such a thing as opinion and preference, but...

If you rip foamies in a day that is definitely yours, and not the foamies. Sure I understand foamies DO rip, but cmon. Just make sure the dont hang off the bar at all, maybe use bar ends, and when they rip in the inside of the grip where the end of your hands are, PROMPTLY put a piece of electrical tape on it. With some electrical tape, my foamies last months.

foamies may not have grip, but they have 20 times more grip when your hands are sweating than bmx grips, but when your hands aren't sweating they are probably cold, and hurting from having bmx grips in the winter. So you can see a lot of different perspective there.

just put tape on the crossbar where the foams go, and they stay good.

Overall bmx grips last longer, but foamies are ridiculously cheap as well. You can practically get 12 9 inch foam grips for the same price as 2 animal edwin grips... so I like that factor a lot.

obviously I love foamies <3
