Fitting Keirin grips

I fitted these a coupla weeks ago with the hot soapy water method and they went on in about 30 seconds... And they were a VERY tight fit...

*Love *the packaging on these...

I got mine on by dipping them in boiling water first to expand the rubber. Turned out a lot easier than I though.

the petrol method was quick!have the grips got holes in the ends? if not make a small hole for the air to come out!

the soyo ones do!

hai! soyotastic!!!!!!!

I used lighterfuel to get my champ grips on and off.
if you need to get some really far down there when removing,
i used a chopstick which is obviously NJS.

Any of the london shops stocking soyo or champ grips at the moment?

i am not paying £7.50 shipping from planet x

soap and water easy peasy

paul from freshtripe has heaps in diff colours as well ;)

Yep, I've got cheapo red/white/black ones for £7.50, white soyo's for £11.50 + nice pink or purple champs for £12.50.

£2.50 P&P for 1-2 pairs (recorded).

damn, i thought i was using my super smarts when i used a few zip-ties down the grip... oh well.

had to remove one of the buggers last night to put on a quill stem, took fucking ages of sweating and swearing,
but saw this thread when i was having a fag break, about to do the washing up, threw the grip in the hot soapy water, smoked fag, pushed the grip on in 5 mins.....thanks :o)

was that a euphamism or something?! :p

what about Brick lane, Brixton, cavendish etc - any of them got em?

cavendish, have some in certain colours, got my 4mm ones from hubjub

anyone want to swap orange oury's for black soyo's?

Saw some in Brixton this morning, various different colours - sorry, didn't clock the price

Just fitted some grips to my track bike - the hot soapy water tip worked a treat. Thanks.

Only drawback to soapy water is on Cr Mo bars.

They go rusty inside.

Good point - I'll have to get the gf's hair dryer on them tonight.

'swhy lighter fuel is the best.

Small amount of warm water. No soap. 2 days to dry. 2 minute job, tops. Perfect.

wd40!

Takes longer to dry properly.
