I have a bike I'm selling but it needs new grips and a saddle.

I don't intend to use it with these items so do you think id get away with buying these really cheap items?

Of course you'll 'get away it'. LBS may even have some ratty ones you could have FOC.

I just didn't want said items to look that horrendous that I've wasted my money. Wondering if anyone else had bought anything similar?

They'll be fine, won't look too horrendous at all.

Are the grip sizes pretty universal i.e. will these likely fit a Carrera Vulcan 2009?

cheers
