ESI Silicone MTB Grips

Since these are slide-on grips, they rely on friction to stay in place. The easiest way to install them is to clean your handlebars thoroughly and use rubbing alcohol or a dedicated grip installation fluid to lubricate the inside of the grip, allowing it to slide on easily before the liquid evaporates and creates a secure bond.

Yes, the 100% silicone material is non-porous, which means it doesn't absorb water. They are designed to maintain their tackiness even when wet, ensuring you keep a secure hold on the bars regardless of the weather conditions.
