what's going on and how to fix it?
Did it get greasy inside? sweaty? Just stretched and needs replacing?

much looser and it's gonna just slide of the handle bar - probably whilst in out the saddle climbing a hill

Hairspray is supposed to work - remove grip, dry underneath, spray with hairspray, and slide back on - it'll dry and hold in place.

Or get proper lockon grips.

Cheers HG - I'll de-code your post and try whatever it is you're suggesting . . .

I've corrected it for you. My typing seems to get worse with practice.

Perfect excuse to make motorbike noises while riding i'd have thought.

(on a serious note, use lock-on grips to stop this happening)
