Good info... Some of them have rubberized grips, but I was thinking the all aluminum ones would be better...

Anybody else?

If I remember correctly, it was grip.

Also they are on amazon if you dont feel like shipping from hong kong.

Save the $10, you will be dissapointed with them, its the crappy feeling cheapo aluminum, get a regular set of grips at the store and call it a day

Had good luck with shipping from China... probably because the shit is drop-shipped from somewhere in the US 9/10 times...

Probably right... I just think the look would be interesting given what my overall picture is for the bike...

$10 and a half hour with some sandpaper vs $10 of bar stock, a lathe I don't have, and how many hours?... maybe I'm missing something...

See you could have just said I don't have a lathe. Would have been much simpler
