90's grips

[kev-s]

what kind of grips were being used around 93 to 95?

i remember having a set of ati pistol petes which were quite hard if i remember correctly

also i had a set of odi mushroom 2's they were a hard plastic shell with the soft grip part on the top which when got wet gave u throttle grip yet the hard plastic stayed still

need a set of mid school grips for my 93 holmes build

cheers kev

Odi Longnecks, or Roughnecks.  Aimes were still being used then.  I've only ever run Longnecks myself since 94 - still use em now.

My memory is letting me down at the mo, I'm struggling to remember owt else

i think odyssey gedda grips were around then to
i also seem to remember a clear set of fusion grips that hurt my hands

[TwoBobRob]

Yeah, fusion for sure.  Jive Handles have just come to mind too.

i found an old UGP grip in one of my buckets in the shed, i think it's from around 94 ish

[TwoBobRob]

Was there a grip called a Tentacle?  That's rattling around my head too..

I used to ride A`me grips a lot. Think I had the Unitron ones that seemd to last forever.

was never a fan of the ame tri grips as they seemed to hurt my hands

i can just about remember the odyessy gedda grips

i completely forgot about the odi longnecks even though i have a black pair on my blackbike and my a red pair on my 1/18th holmes and now i remember i used to have some in the mid 90's

so longnecks it is

Odi Longnecks, or Roughnecks.

In the early 90s I used Oakley O-wings cos I could get them for 99p a pair ( )
Then I changed to roughnecks, and stuck with them for about 10 years.

[teamsano]

oh yeah, i rocked owings once too from hotwheels or summit i recall? good grips, slim and soft!

i still rock roughnecks alex, best grips evar!

[GINGERHOLMES]

odyssey power paws (  they were great but used to brake up really easily would leave your hands covered in black rubber  )

odi longnecks were the best grips i had around that time, with a set of donuts on them for extra padding lol

[SaMAlex]

oh yeah, i rocked owings once too from hotwheels or summit i recall? good grips, slim and soft!

Yep, hotwheels for the O-wings. Pink, white, black, turquoise, I had them all. 2 days to wear in ... 2 days to wear OUT!
Oh, and you got your gold or blue DX from cyclesport for £5.
