    Bought 3 sets as I can't rely on being able to buy these again in the future. They are not quite as good as the old Excel grips but much better than not doing this size at all. The end without the clamp moves a bit more than the old double clamp grips and it's now impossible to get the superstar logo's on the grips to be the same way round on both sides of the bar. A limited run of refill cartri

    They don't survive brushes with trees. They are fiddly to fit as the o-rings are too big or too small. And I've just stripped the bolt thread. £20 in the bin

     

    Superstar comment. If you have stripped the thread its been way overtorqued, probbly as the wrong o-ring size has been fitted. The bolt is purely to compress the o-ring to create friction inside the bar on thes

    Great bit of kit. Really nicely finished and so light I actually thought they'd sent me an empty envelope by mistake.

    I put this grip to my order as it was cheap and I wanted to try it on my XC bike. It's very comfortable and as a bonus the color matches the other blue parts of my bike. I can't comment on the wear as I rode it once but it's excellent value.

    I know the description states that you get a pair, but thought this meant enough lockrings for a pair of grips. Superstar products are great value normally, but £8 for enough lockrings for a pair of grips is silly given the price of a whole set. Come on these are basic extruded parts, an extra pair would be about 20p worth. charge £4.20p and avoid the irritation for those of us who rid

    Aside from looking awesome and being excellently made, solid bar ends like this serve a very important purpose. As I learned the hard way, bar ends are a safety feature, and if you use plastic plugs they can break in a crash, leaving a hollow tube which can be extremely dangerous. Last week, one end of my handlebar got stuck in the ground during a relatively mild crash, simply because the plas
