Default Tricks on how to keep the grips On!!!!!!

Another tip for the gas idea. I wrap black eletrical tape around the bar. Fill grip with gas empty it and slid on. The gas desolves the tape a little and when it dries (very fast) you are ready and it will not slip at all.

Great fix in the woods as well.

I use 90 second two part epoxy, and have never had a grip come off. It is a real pain when its time to remove the grips but i dont mind. A little bit of effort is worth it to me to not bust my butt cause of a failed grip.
