Lock on grips are annoying to me, whenever i ride someones bike that has them i find myself accidently grabing the lock on part and it hurts/cuts me(on the bolt part)
i think its a good idea and all but they could use some flanges...

Alot of people by lock ons because they DON'T have flanges. Flanges look corny to me.

Once again, you avoid addressing the actual issue at hand with a feeble attempt at putting me down.

I was considering not even posting it because you would say something like that.

I have big hands and I use Kink Omegas, which are great but wear out too fast, I'm using Gary Young's now and hopefully they'll last a bit longer. Grips are a hugely personal thing.
