Review on ๐Ÿšต ESI Chunky Mountain Bike Grip by David Sanchez

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Uh uh uh! suitable for spare parts and components

Easy installation with alcohol, looks solid. But they are not the best grip ever. I used them on my Eagle Gripshift so it cut the correct grip and I can't get them back. They're still better than the original grips that came with the Gripsjhift, but they're not as comfortable as they say and the price is ridiculous. Bought these because I thought they really were the best pens, but they aren't that bad, but they aren't worth $18 either. Downgrade to one star. Yesterday I had the opportunity to take a long trip and my hands hurt. However, 360 Cycles delivered the item very quickly and shipping was free. The second time I edited, I updated a run. I took them off and tried other cheap knobs from China and liked them, but I tried the ones with the Eagle Gripshift and the diameter is a bit smaller so I went back to tightening the ESI knobs. Now they feel a lot better, not sure if they need a break in period but after removing and installing they feel a lot better. I was about to up my rating to 3 stars but the inner ribbed part of the end caps breaks easily and I lost (and found) one of these. Another thing is the price, very expensive.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No power
