I use Specialized Enduro lock on grips, they give great grip, are comfy and not too thin ether

have you had a look at the Uberbike grips... I bought a pair of the 150mm fat grips for my DH rig and the smaller grips for my XC rig.... not had a chance to test them out as yet...

After carefully looking and consideration of what I'll be using the bike for mainly Which is xc and trail centres and I have quite small hands so I need a thin comfy grip I decided to get some nice fat and 150mm wide down hill style ubergrips  Thanks to doogs suggestion !. Because I'm clever like that.. May work to may be to big but meh only a tenner |

Bigger is better! More girth and more length no one can complain about that!!   Le cockpit !!  They feel massive haha so much thicker and a lot longer than my strange ones, had to move brakes and gears Etc up loads but they feel really nice on the hands . Loads of grip and more room to put my hands when not grabbing the brake Can't wait to try them out! |

I prefer narrower grips, then i know exactly where my hands should be, no lateral wiggle room, which could lead to one hand in/out further than the other. With you on that you know where your hand will be. im thinking of going to silicone grips at some point so I can get narrower by cutting them down. |

I tested the extra wide/thick Ubergrips today down at Ae forest..... had 9 runs down the hill.. and not one single blister on my delicate little hands.... grips were comfy enough.......
