  1. I am having a problem with my new oury grips, I get them on, and they dry
    out and stay tight for a while, but if I ride in the rain or in damp
    weather, they seem to start slipping again.

    What could I use to keep them on tight?

    Thanks,

    Jason

    Try putting deck tape under the grips. I put it on, now my oury grips never
    move.

    Have tried hairspray on Oury's, and like you said, when it gets wet out they
    slip. Now I just spray 3M Super 77 Adhesive on bars slip grips on, let it
    dry overnight...no more slipping. It is like rubber cement...remove grips
    without cutting them off.

    I use that glue also. Works great for me.

    Superglue. Seriously - I don't bother f'ing around anymore, I just s/glue
    the fcukers on and be done with it.

    Oh, and surprisingly enough, you *can* get them off again in one piece if
    you need to, providing your bars are Al and not painted.
