Review on πŸ”§ Innovative Components AN5C20005S321 16 18 Steel: A Revolutionary Solution for Enhanced Durability and Strength by Andrew Dickens

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good value for grips

Good value for a pack of 10. Back then I only needed 3, but now I'm ready when I need those pen sizes again. There are a lot of very cheap metric pins out there as most of the world is metric but as I needed an SAE size this was the best value I could find on Revain or anywhere else. Turns out the old screws replacing these knobs were in the wrong position. Holes but I couldn't see it until after I disassembled the part to install new grips. The correct holes are blind (not through) and only fit a 1" screw, so I had to cut them out. But now it's all back together and they work well and look true to the original mid 80's style. .At first I thought the height of these knobs would be unattractive, but in practice it's an advantage as you can wrap your hand around them for more torque or precision and still look good.

Pros
  • Popular choice with smooth lines and finger spacing for easy turning
Cons
  • Unreliable
