Riser Bars.. show me your grips!
 
Let's see your combo. I'm leaning toward wrapping mine, but have never seen it in person, or on the web. Inspire me..

I have these grips on my risers:
These are my personal favorite grips; I modified them a little by xacto-ing the innerside protector

Champ grips:

Soyo grips: AVOID THESE AT ALL COSTS IF YOU INTEND ON RIDING WITHOUT GLOVES! These will give you some nasty blisters on your hands.

There are two pictures.. On that note I'm going to go learn how to correctly poset pictures, brb

If I go with risers I am definitely going with PDW, but I have tried ODI Lock ons and I really like them...even though the allen wrench seems to warp getting them tight.

My Schwinn Traveler has silver bars, clear Ourys, and white A'me gripsavers. I thought I had pics but can't find them, time to take some more . . .

I also like various BMX grips sans flange.

Aaron Ross Qwerty grips:

I find BMX grips much more comfortable than Ourys.

Whats the shortest you can go before its too short for lock-on's. Are most types solid plastic on the inner layer?

HAWT!

ODI makes a 90mm lock on... but yes, they are hard plastic so they slide on then clamp down on both ends.
