| Pros | looks really trick, don't slip at all, easy installation/removal, excellent grip thats slightly tacky...did i mention they look awesome? | | Cons | price could be a bit lower...i got mine at my LBS for $27.00 | | Verdict | though they're not the cheapest grips you can get, they are well worth the money! the grip they provide is excellent, and they won't slip AT ALL once they're tightened. They are also reallyhigh qulity as far as the grip compound and the aluminum bar ends. also check out your LBS because some sell CUSTOM ones! i have annodized orange bar ends with a laser etched logo. | | Recommended for: Anyone |
| Pros | Easy install....they do not slip & looks great on your handlebars | | Cons | Little pricey..... :-( | | Verdict | Yes I would recommend them highly....my stock grips would move around and these grips don't move. | | Recommended for: Anyone |
| Pros | If you've got big hands..these are the grips to use. | | Cons | Don't lean your bike against your car..the ODI locks will remind you with a scrape. Easy to remove if you need to do shifter/brake lever work. ODI Locks don't readily clamp down on slick carbon bars. | | Verdict | I can't remember why I got these...but I'm guilty of equating price with quality and this applies to these grips. If you have large hands these will fit as good as your hand around a properly sized tennis racket. I love the fact that they slide on easily without subjecting yourself to a wrestling match trying to force a soft grip on with soap or hairspray. I use carbon build compound to get a secure clamp down on carbon bars. | | Recommended for: Anyone |
| Pros | Just the right amount of thickness, extreme grip and let's not forget how trick they look on your bike. | | Cons | None. | | Verdict | I used to use Yeti grips, but after installing these, it would be difficult to use any other. | | Recommended for: Anyone |
| Pros | Absolutely great grips. | | Cons | A little pricey! | | Recommended for: Anyone |

| Pros | Good balance of firm/squishy. No sharp corners on the lock rings. Never twist. Last a long time. | | Cons | Could be cheaper | | Verdict | Lizardskins Moab Lock-on Grips have earned the highest compliment I can give to any contact point – I forget that they are there. I have been using these grips for a little over a year on my hardtail steel single-speed where I frequently have to climb out of the saddle really torqueing on the handlebar: they have never moved. The Moab grips are very comfortable with gloves with a nice balance of firmness and compliance. Barehanded they are OK and still have a good feel when slicked with sweat. The locking rings have a smooth finish with rounded edges and a recessed bolt hole – no sharp edges to irritate. My pair have withstood many impacts with trees with no noticeable damage – but I did lose a left side endplug in a crash. Installation was easy and they use a standard 3mm allen wrench to tighten down. | | Recommended for: Experienced XC riders |
