    sup guys,
    just wondering if there was a certain way to get these origin 8 rubbers on the bar ends of my bullhorns. Is there some sort of technique to do it? Any advice would help. Thanks guys,
  1.  
    use air to blow and slip it on. pressurized air to create a little stretching then slide

    You can use any liquid as a lubricant, preferably something that evaporates fast like high percentage rubbing alcohol or hair spray. Use as little as possible and the grips wont be twisty for long.

    i usually just spit a little in my grips, works just fine.


    the canned air/air compressor trick works pretty well too.

    i used repositionable spray tack last time, worked great.

    hair spray works the best. It dries within minutes, and leaves somewhat of a tack.

    I use canned air with the little spray tube slid under the grip. Hairspray also works very well and dries tacky.

    make sure you don't use an oil based lubricant, it can dissolve your condom

    i put a compressor in one end and put a layer of hairspray down on the inside of the grip sounds like a fart sometimes but gets the job done. DONT USE WD40!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you get it on and be like "oh wtf was alex talking about that slipped right on" and then you will go to test it out and first hard pump wam you slide of the front wondering why you have your grips in your hands and your bike on top of you

    Roughly? Dude that's pretty much it exactly! Only that one's new and not covered in dirty hand prints yet.

    Well, I haven't actually seen it, so I couldn't say for certain.

    i think water worked the best... it took awhile for it to dry though.

    brake fluid or bug spray. In humid weather, bug spray takes a bit longer to dry.
