Lizard Skin North Shore Lock-on Grips.

I have been having problems with my hands going numb when riding longer distances. After doing some research on the internet I found that the problem can be caused by pressure being applied to the nerves in your hands. A way to alleviate the pressure is to change your grips. I have quite large hands so looked for larger diameter grips. After some looking I found that Lizard Skin do large diameter grips. I purchased the Lizard Skin North Shore Lock-on's.

The grips arrived and I fitted them to my bike. They are the lock-on type so all you have to do is remove the old grips, clean the bars under where the old grips where then slide these on and tighten the 2 grub screws (1 at each end of the grip). That's it they are locked in place and they wont move no matter how much it rains. I have ridden some miles with them on now and have had only slight numbness occasionally but it passes.

Over all I am very pleased with the grips. Instead of feeling like you are holding the handlebars them selves it now feels like you have a good solid grip on the bike which in turn gives you a more confident feel while ridding.
