Track grips
Anyone know what kind of track grips these are? they have the same style as Soyos but they seem to be longer than the other ones iv seen.

They may be Champ grips but Soyos also come in long version.

somas or strong g but really dirty

Im pretty sure those are Soyos.

word thanks. i think i'm going to bite the bullet and pick up the soyos. I was a bit hesitant because i like riding the drops kind of high in the bend and wasn't sure if the grips would reach.

they look like Soyo longs to me. but beware! they are fine with gloves, but damn those things are like sandpaper. Strongs and Champs are a lot softer.

I prefer Champ grips just for the fact that you can choose thickness from 1mm to 4mm. And yeah like nateintokyo says, Soyo's are rough. |
champs are softer than soyos, which is more of a tactile benefit than a cushy oury feel. i like the 2mm thickness, conveniently the one the colours come in. 4mm is much harder to mount on bars and not much 'softer', but i haven't tried the 1mm yet.

Lovely bike by the way, what kind of frame is that?
