Adventures with a new dye
« on: March 15, 2016, 09:47 PM »
Got some "industrial use" dyes of a friend a good while back and when someone recently asked if I did my lever grips in green it reminded me that I never got round to trying them.

though orange would be a good starting point. These are my previously white grips after just 10 mins  :daumenhoch:





Got a rubbery handlebar grip in there as my next trial. Results soon  :)
