I'm on the lookout for a pair of black Oury grips,are there originals and re-pops about? BMX and MX types? what are the differences? MX i assume have a larger internal diameter for the twist grip or have i got EVERYTHING wrong. any advice please?

i think oury have always made the grip.the only differance in the new to the old is that one of them(not sure which) has a ribbed section that butts up to the flange whereas the other is smooth,and yes be careful not to buy mx grips cos of the twist grip

put some black ones up for sale earlier and removed them as they are MX type - I had no idea, they fitted fine with hairspray but one hole is slighty larger than the other (is that not always the way

)

£7 if anyone needs any!

Sid,is the twist grip side like a pr#ck in a bucket fit or still tight on the bars? only wanted for a carpet queen.

you can put insulation tape around your bars for the twist grip one

sid1972 · « **Reply #6 on:** January 30, 2011, 06:59 PM »

tbh mate, they fitted fine nice and solid - but I do use hairspray, they never moved once it had gone off

The OGK mach didn't have the ribbed bit and that was a spec grip on a few old school bikes bitd.

The very early oury grips (early 70's up to about 79) had no ribs and then 79/80 to about 82 they had the ribs and then they went bust. The new remakes also have the ribs as Glynn said.

side note :

i have a set of the old ones and they feel like like right rubber, not so powdery as some other grips but work well

i also bought a set for a mates ride in red of the new one's on ebay - they have a very soft feel and not solid rubber feel of the old - with in 6 months they got sticky and started to degrade - they almost felt like one of those sticky rubber toy things that you throw up a window and watch it walk down it !

cheers B
