Esponjoso
Pros: buen precio, Cómodo, Buen ajuste
Cons: el agua
"Nada que ver con los puños de goma, son mas esponjosos y comodos, pero cuando llueve se empapan de tal manera que consigue que el agua traspase mis guantes de inverno por la palma de la mano."

Get a grip on a bargain
Pros: Great Value, Attractive, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: Unadjustable, Limited Color Choices
"Bought these to replace a set of rubber grips on my MTB that I was using previously that were ridged, and a little uncomfortable after a long day riding.
A friend has the non-ergo version of these on her bike and having tried them I thought it was worth a go! They are very comfortable and have excellent grip and do a great job as an extra shock absorber between me and the ground; they are *well* worth the price."

Comfortable and excellent value
Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, High Quality, Lightweight, Good Fit
"I have cut these down about an inch to accomodate some bar-ends.
Mounted them with soapy water, getting them back off my be interesting.
Very comfortable so far, no numbness or anything, though I am still fiddling with the final positions of all the controls.
Super light, simple, comfortable and well made - recommended!"

Good Value Grips.
Pros: Durable, Comfortable, Lightweight
"This is my second pair of Ritchey Truegrips, the first lasted 3 or 4 years of daily use so durability is excellent for the price. The grips are soft enough to use on longer rides without gloves. Installed them by putting a little rubber solution inside the grip and slid onto the bar, when the glue dried they were on rock solid and have never moved even in torrential downpours (or summer as its called in the UK). I have read some reviews where people have destroyed the grips to remove them, just slide the straw you get with WD40 or GT85 between the grips and bar and give it a spray and they will soon slide off. Also a cheap weightweenie upgrade, they can easily knock off 100g compared to lock-ons. The matching Ritchey bar plugs are a nice little extra. Recommended."

"Comfortable and light weight grips that are easy to install. I had put up with the stock grips on my new bike for a month, these have transformed the feel of the handlebar. I like them a lot. The last pair I had lasted for ages too!"

Pros: Great Value, Comfortable, Lightweight
Cons: Limited Color Choices
"I have been using these for a few years now and have them on all my bikes.
Only down side is they move when wet so i glue them on which means if i need to remove i destroy them. No huge drama when they are so cheap..."

Comfy and light
Pros: High Quality, Lightweight
Cons: Wears Out Easily
"Not the lightest grips on the planet but the lightest with a decent volume and comfy too. They do wear quite quickly and can slip from the bars when wet if not glued in place but the price is right and their vibration absorbtion is a definate plus."

light and comfy!
Pros: Comfortable, Good Fit, Great Value, Lightweight
Cons: Wears Out Easily
"These grips are seriously light and much better at absorbing vibration than rubber grips, they dont last as long as rubber grips, but are cheap enough to replace when needed.
The only complaint is when they are wet, my gloves don't have rubber grip on the palm so the combination of wet sponge and wet leather is dangerously slick. But thats more due to the gloves than the grips, if you have gripped glove palms the problem wouldn't occur."

Pros: Comfortable, Lightweight
"I have always preferred foam grips and these Ergo's are the best I have tried, my only critisism is that the outside ends are a little too thin for my big hands. But very comfy and grippy if you like foam."

Light as it gets!
Pros: Comfortable, Good Fit, Lightweight
"this is the first time i've used foam grips having heard many horror stories from other people about them falling to bits. touch wood these seem to be standing up to the pressure after 4 months ish of use although i think it's fair to assume that foam grips probably won;t last as long as rubber ones and there main advantage is weight.
on the up side these grips are pretty comfy with the ergo design and for the price i think i would buy some more when they do eventually meet their end. if they last a year i will be happy and i think they might just do it."
