Pros: Solid feel, classic design.

Cons: No texture means these can be slippy in sweaty, gloveless hands.

Recommendation: My Bridgestone MB-5 came with these grips back in 1994 and I haven't found any more comfortable grips since then. I'm actually pretty surprised they still make these things - I guess you can't argue with a good design. I plan on getting a new pair of these for my new bike.
