ODI SDG Lock-On Grip

(discontinued)

I've never been on board with super thin grips, they hurt my aging hands. After I had a scary moment(muddy hands)with a well known thin grip with little texture, I went looking for something else. I found the Hansolo grips by SDG and ODI. I thought, this looks interesting! They have reversed scalloped finger grips on the underside and SDG logos on the top, which provide cushion. I've never slipped a hand with these grips, no matter the weather. They are a medium thickness - 1/2 way between the Oury's and an ODI Ruffian. This is perfect for me. Downsides are that they wear quickly on the top, but not so fast I don't keep buying them. Also, if you want to color coordinate the end cap rings are expensive and you can't buy just the grip without the end caps. I have a drawer full of black end cap/rings. These are also narrow - by the time you get lock rings on both ends and add the extra flange with the SDG and ODI text, you can't really move your hand around at all. I currently am using a different grip that came on my new bike and I appreciate the extra width from a single rock ring grip.  Overall if the narrow width doesn't bother you, I would recommend this grip.
