Thinking about getting some new grips for my bike, for no other reason than to personalise it a bit.

Been looking at ODI Troy Lee and Lizard Skin Peatys, anyone know if these are any good? The reviews on Amazon are positive.

Any other recommendations? From googling ODI and Lizard Skins seem to be popular. As I said I have no issues with the ones it came with apart from wanting a different colour smile

I always used ODI Lock Ons, if you are sliding your grips onto your bars, hairspray does it best.
The current ones appear to be lock ons (little metal collar, looks like it takes an Allan key) so would likely go like for like.

Silly question, but are they mainly a one size fits all kinda deal?

On the recommendation of this thread, I used these guys recently. Ordered Monday, arrived Tuesday. Grips looks great, haven't fitted them yet but everything seems high quality including the anodised lock rings. How they can sell them for a tenner is crazy!
