Title: Changing Grips Post by: UncleRico on September 18, 2005, 08:07:04 AM Does anyone know any tricks or tips for replacing handlebar grips?
I had the shop put my last set on, and it looks like the guy who did it was drunk?

I usually spay some spray paint in there to help stick to the bars. then wire tie then for extra security. 5-10 minute job for a profesional...lol
