Fat grips or thin grips?

Sunline Half Waffle and Logo Thick. Never could understand why so many prefer a thin grip. They make my hands hurt.

Used to think I liked thick until I got a pair of the ODI Troy Lee's...which I see here are considered thin - Really really like these grips!

SIMPLE AS THIS:
Do you have small hands? or large ones?
and if you like the grips you have, use em.

My handses are medium to L in size, but I prefer thin(ner), hard(er) grips. I'm considering having "ODI Ruffians For Life" tattooed on my neck, actually. I've tried larger, squishier grips and have found that my hands get moar tired and I have moar arm pumps with them, so back to the Ruffians I wents.

Fatties! After years of ODI Rogues, I have found Sunline Lock-ons to be my fave. I'm 6'5" and I have a pair of (no joke) XXXXL Fox Moto gloves that fit perfectly.

Fat that squish down to skinny: The Swayze! Ive always liked traditional grip better than lock-ons so I run em on my dh bike, as well. GIT YERR OWN @ TheSensus.com

Ruffian. Can't deal with bigger grips (but don't have small hands...).

This thread got me thinkin'... turns out there are two other essential things in life that I DON'T like on the "thick and squishy" side: women and toilet paper.
