Removing Oury Grips
 

I searched...didnt find much.

Any suggestions. Ive tried compressed air. Ive tried WD40. Im getting annoyed....

save me!

I've always just ran them under water while sliding a soapy butter knife under the grip.
Slide it under and rotate around the grip, each time stretching the grip out slightly to allow the running water to make its way under the grip.
After that, they should just slide right off.

If all else fails, you'll probably have to cut 'em off. You might also try posting in the MTB forum. They might have some secret trick.

open the end w a screwdriver (to 'crack the seal') and shoot some hairspray in there..then pull 'em off with your gloves on

I like the knife idea. See, that's what I mean by "secret trick."

actually...in my pissed off desperation.....i just peeled them off. I rolled them up to the end and they just came off

thanks for the suggestions though

Haha.
Well, next time try the soapy knife trick.
Works wonders.

I use a spray can of isopropyl alcohol that has one of those long straw nozzle thingies like a can of wd40. The alcohol lets the grips slide of easily and doesn't leave behind any mess or residue to clean up.

What kind of grips/bars? Compressed air works %99 percent of the time, especially if you have the right chuck(I use a tube about the diameter of a screwdriver with the end smashed flat).

im sure my compressed air was no good. It was just one of those cans used for cleaning out keyboards. I just stucl the straw under the grip....the air ended up leaking out the wrong end of the straw...bah

Right- you should be using an air compresser :D that is the only way compressed air works- and it does.

a screwdriver and dishwasher soap always works for me. i actually used that method for removing mine.

Same here. Seperate the grip from the bars with the screwdriver and pour in some soapy water. Wiggle the grips around and they should slide right off.

Nice dude! Huskies are the jam. F*** Stihl.

fo real.

IF YOU'RE GONNA DIE, (DIE!) DIE WITH YOUR BOOTS ON!!!!


(that post reminded me of that song for whate'er reason.)

avoid soap and water if you ever plan to put them on again,. they will rotate for the rest of there life. longer then your life for sure...

you can use a air compressed, or aquanet and a flatblade. putting them on with rubber cement is a good idea too.

No way.
Just let them run under water for a little bit and the soap will wash away like...well...soap.
I've used the soap and water removal method many times and have never encountered slippage upon re-installation.

i use WD-40 and a screwdriver at home, and compressed air at the shop.

if you did a search and didn't find an answer..u did look hard enough. i mention this topic many times ..just roll them off.

S/F,
CEYA!

Remove Oury Grips with Isopropyl Alcohol
 

Fill a syringe with isopropyl alcohol. Use a straw to slip between the bar and Oury grip or use a screw driver to gently pry the Oury grip away from the bar. Inject the isopropyl alcohol under the grip while rotating the grip back and forth. The grip will loosen and you can slip it off. Alcohol leaves it all nice and clean.

I'm really hoping the OP isn't still struggling with removing his grips 12 years later.
