Pure Japanese trustworthy, no-frills, functionall perfect stuff. OGK dabbles only slightly in trends, and doesn’t wander from its core products. I LOVE OGK. We’re lucky to have it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eI’ve looked at all every grip they currently make, and am happy to bring you the cream of them all. Both are about 4.3-inches, and that’s another thing to like about them: Big enough for any hand, but they don’t eat up handlebar space that’s better used for a second grab-station (in front of the brakes or shifters). Most factory-made rubber grips are 120 to 130mm long, which works on straight bars, but is too long (I would say, sane people might disagree) for swept-back models, especially the Albatross, Choco, Bosco, and Tosco.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eTwo models, equally good, a vanilla or chocolate kind of choice, as follows:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe ERGOFINGER 2-TONE is a two-tone gray (dark and light) with subtle under-ridges for your fingers. They don’t make a world of difference, but sometimes the ridges are fun to play with on everyday rides. They give your hands something to do. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eThe PLAIN is a plain, slightly tapered all-gray cylinder, fatter in back so your hand doesn’t fly off.  Open end: 28mm.  Closed end: 32mm.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eMounting: Lube bar with hairspray or alcohol-based hand cleaner like Purel. Put a bit inside the grip, too. Slide on fast before it seizes up.
