I have Black Diamond shifter/brake/passenger/pegs on my denim Street Bob and I have been debating about the matching handgrips. I guess my main concern is how comfortable they would be on long rides and how cold they would be in the cooler months.

Anyone out there have these or similar hand grips? How do you like them?

Curious because I am having new bars put on, and if I want to get these, I might as well put them on at the same time.

Thanks!

 

I have the silencer style grips and really like the feel. If it gets cold enough outside that the metal grips are too cold to touch then I'm usually wearing gloves so that has not been an issue. As for the comfort again a pair of gloves is just as confy as rubber grips and no gloves. I think it's more about looks than anything.

 

hello vibrations

 

Honestly, metal hand grips are form not function... Nothing worse for actual riding comfort...

Metal grips are great for bar hoppers but so are hardtails... get it?

 

Had them. Loved the look hated the feel. Plus they vibrate and get cold as ice. Not my choice but find what you like and forget whatee don't. Mods reflect the individual personalities of the riders not the opposite.

 

I have the diamond black grips and really like them. They have good traction on the gloves.

I haven't noticed any vibration issues. My rides range from 30 minutes to 2 hours.

I ride every day too. It's Savannah and not Detroit, but its been in the mid thirties in the mornings. I wear gloves, but haven't felt cold grips.

 

I always wear gloves and it has never been an issue. Actually, I'm looking at a new pair of metal grips. Not a big deal.

 

I have joker machine knurled aluminum grips and there comfortable on long rides.

 

I have them on my bike never had an issue with vibrations

 

I really like your bike brother.. Lookin good..
