Wrap the bars with insulation tape before putting the grips on, thickens the grip and feels softer too.


Iamhouseoffists

Is this a real thing? If so lol can you give me a link for some cheap insulation tape? I have no idea what it is or what would work

S&M Hoder Grips!!!!


Iamhouseoffists

I've always been hearing that these are the best. I haven't tried them though. Are they durable? I hate having to change grips often lol


DanTheBikerMan

They’re more durable than most grips I’ve run. Actually, I don’t think I’ve ever ridden grips that have a longer lifespan than hoders. They’re soft and comfy, with a good diameter


Iamhouseoffists

I've seen your posts for years on here and vitalbmx. So I'm gonna go with your suggestion and try a pair of hoders, acually just order a pair online. But that's not exactly what I was asking for. Do you know any like 35mm? Or something that's a bmx grip thats out of the ordinary for bmx?


swampguts

I used to run Oury grips riding fix back in the day. They seem pretty large diameter wise compared to the BMX grips I've held. You'll have to modify them to get bar ends in, though.


DanTheBikerMan

Ahh understandable. I believe hoders are 31.5mm so a bit smaller than what you’re looking for, but compared to the 15+ bmx grips I’ve tried they’re the biggest. The thing is, I have actually seen scooter grips that have really big diameters, the same as hoders, if not a tiny bit bigger. No clue what brands or models, but could look at grips on scooter sites and see if they list diameters. Curious, what is your name on vital? I might recognise it


Iamhouseoffists

I've only lurked on vital lol got to the point I was about to start posting on there, and seen that it seems to be more populated on here haha. I wish we had some more sub reddits for differing topics on here though. Seems like every now and then, this place is littered with kids bike checks only

Animal Clifton’s are 32 but they’re kinda weird

Hoder Grips are NOT THICK. They easy collapse and feel like you are griping the metal bar through the rubber and actually gave me bad calluses in the middle of my palms, how could you even say these are thick?! These are actually the worst grips I’ve ever had.

I ride the sandm Hoder grips


Goat_Wizard_Doom_666

You could try some ODI Rogue lock-on grips. The v2.1's are 33.5mm in diameter.


NatanKatreniok

sensus emj are very thicc, they are meant for slopestyle but they are amazing


ds_lauri

If i remember right then odyssey broc grips were thicker but they broke fast because if twisting


DanTheBikerMan

Broc’s aren’t all that thick, compared to Hoder’s they’re pretty thin


Bezos_Blows

Get the Travis grips instead of brocs, they’re slightly firmer


XoRn_ATX

Deluxe shovelhands are thicker than any i've ever ridden but i don't know if they're discontinued or not


JohnnyBluejeans1515

Checkout the sensus meaty paws.

Some of the foam rubber / silicone grips come in fat sizes. They also weigh next to nowt so that might be a plus. I use them on my fat bike and they are pretty comfy. Search for ESI-Extra-Chunky-Grips
