Hiya all,
Looking for sone large diameter lock on grips, I've got hands like shovels. Any reccomendations?
i been using portland designs grips. look weird but are comfy as
I've got a pair shovels, Xxl in gloves, I find oury lock ons perfect, nice even without gloves, which I quite like sometimes.
Superstar Excel are very wide, comfy too.
SDG Hansolos are pretty chunky, and a really nice compound too. Or if you like em really big, the Raceface Strafe Lockon's are CHUNKAY!
I've found the Superstars are good for diameter, but not overly comfy and too long.
I now run ODI Rogues and love them to bits - I have huge hands as well (XL/XXL gloves)
Wot he said , been through a few and ODI Rogues are best, gloved or not they feel great .
Another vote for ODI Rogues, very comfy
+1 ODI Rogues but yes you need to wear gloves or they feel odd. I just wear thin gloves without the ulnar padding etc.
Size 12 hands and use Lizard Skins Northshore lock ons have done for a good few years. Last well and good grip. Generally can be bought at good price too if you shop around.
I bought a pair of fat Bontragers from Alpine for £15. They've been pretty good so far. 😀
Superstars are long, but too narrow in diameter.
ODI yeti lock ons are the best i have tried/owned.
they are very similar in diameter to my Rogues which are pretty fat by grip standards (fatest of the ODI range). But they are very long and I wouldnt recommend on <700mm bars as they push all the controls quite a way inboard.

I've got a pair of Sunline thick grips you can try for a couple of quid to cover postage. They're a bit on the big side for my taste.
Thanks rj, think it would be worth a try. I've PM'ed you.
1+ rogues. I was always on the sceptic side of saying there over priced. There £20 and the cheap grips are like 9/£10. The rogues are easily worth double. Been riding hard on them for 6 weeks now and there still mint
Lizard Skin North Shores work for my big hands. They seem a little bigger than the ODI Rogues they replaced.

Cheers rj!
