Re: 93 OCLV weightweenie Project *Shedding more weight*

Ritchey foam grips weigh nack all.

He’s been there tried that and couldn’t get to grip with them - small hands like Jeremy Beadle by all accounts

my last ride showed that fat squishy grips aren't for me, and the WCS actually give me some discomfort, so they'll be going shortly in favour of some nice skinny grips.

On One hand you’d small but then again on the other hand you’d be a monster !

Try KCNC foam grips. They are skinnier and a denser material, oh and they are 15g/pair.

Hmmm... not retro though... I have a plan on some old grips that should be the same weight as the WCS

Re:

If you don't mind hidden weight weenie, when the Air-B perish there are some very light modern inner tubes, they may be 20quid or so but at 90g each that would be saving all hidden away.

Re:

"Propalm" eBay/AliExpress specials are the same but lighter than the Ritchey and you can have loads of them for next to nowt.
At least a year or so back.

But why are we, I mean you changing them? Must have missed that.

I just don't like squishy grips and they give me a weird numb'ness in my hand. All my bikes are riders, so if it doesn't work, it changes

Tomorrow may see the sub 20lb goal met. Again. All retro.

Tune in later kids
