First ride today with the Grip Puppies.... On the disappointing side, no semi-clad young ladies threw themselves at me, nor did a magic beer lorry appear or a lifetime supply of free Jaffa Cakes. However, on the more positive side I did notice an immediate increase in comfort, not only reduced vibration but also the grip fitting my hand better. I've often had white finger on longer rides and also cramp, and my hands aren't that big. With the Grip Puppies the throttle in particular feels so much nicer. Whether it is the lack of vibration or comfier feel to the grips but I found my confidence in the bike's road holding much more predictable. The salt works where they dig out rock salt for the roads is round the corner from us and that road is always greasy and slippery. I usually tippy toe round the bends on that section as the bike always feels squirmy underneath me. Not today - it just feels so much nicer. Amazing difference from two little bits of foam tubing.
