Better than Grip Puppies....

[Anthony]

IF you are looking for something thicker and heavier duty that Grip Puppies, look at Grab On part # GR-25 from PArts Unlimited. I had my dealership order these for me and they are AWESOME!

They are about twice as thick as Grip puppies, providing even more padding for those of use who have large or skinny hands or for those of us who are white knucklers.

I was looking in the bicycle section at Canadian Tire the other day and I came across these
Schwinn Foam Grips (http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=84552444325 9068&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474396672212&bmUID=1188326329932)
$4.99 (http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=84552444325 9068&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474396672212&bmUID=1188326329932)
Product #73-2468-2 (http://www.canadiantire.ca/browse/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=84552444325 9068&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474396672212&bmUID=1188326329932)

I figured that for 5 bucks what the hell. They were a bit tougher than Grip Puppies to get on but are fatter and more comfortable.

How about a Canadian Zip code so we can look at them? :p

Postal code T0G 2A3
Sorry about that. I'm assuming the web site wants a postal code before it will open the link.

The make is Schwinn so I'm betting they are also available elsewhere in the world. Schwinn also has exercise bike grips that have also been mentioned somewhere on the forum.

Yes, those are the for the Schwinn Aerodyne exercise bike, impossible for me to find around here. But they can be had from Nautilus (who makes Schwinn exercise bikes) directly for $4.99+shipping.

Excuse me, but those look like bicycle grips to me, not Schwinn Air Dyne grips. To see Schwinn Air Dyne grips, click on the below

agreed, they are better than grip puppies. just got them and they are thicker and harder to put on, but they went on over the glue on grip heaters and feel like a tennis racket now. i don't think i'll need a throttle lock anymore.

This is what they look like on my Wee. I'm thinking of getting a pair for my new Quad as well. Very comfortable.
