GREAT GRIPS!: Grips

I'm 6'4" and 210 lbs and my glove size is XXL. These GC-1 grips are just right for me and will probably fit smaller hands too. My Schwinn Sierra GSL had similar grips, but they were too soft and could twist if forced. They are firm but not too tight and the metal clip prevents twisting. The length (or width) is the same as the old cranks, so there is no need to move the brake levers. They look great on a comfort/crossover bike. These grips are for the GC-1 model but the product description incorrectly lists GP-1 so look closely at the photo to see the correct model number. The only thing I don't like is that the bulge is way too big under my little fingers, even with my huge hands. Maybe there is a good reason for this and I can get used to it or reduce it a bit.
