Love my Avons - very comfortable, tacky grip, but no black residue on the hands. I went with the Custom Contour Anodized Spike Grips http://avongrips.com/shop/products/C...ike-Grips.html

I just put these grips on whith my PYO bars and love them. Granted i wear gloves 90% of the time but since having them on everybody that has touched them has wanted to get them on their bike. They have enough grip to keep your gloves on them however are nice enough without gloves to ride comfortably.
No black or sticky hands for me at this point. Hope that helps

I installed Avon grips this week. I do ride some without glooves and my hands stay clean. I also really like the feel. I would highly recommend them. I did make a mistake when I put mine on as the cluch side is about an inch away from being all the way on. Be careful with that. It is no big deal but you can feel it is flexable at the end.

A guy here had the same problem with the clutch side. He had a small piece machined that fit into the end of the handlebars that was about an inch long so it didn't flex on the end.
