Purchasing Scooter Grips

Grips are attached to your bar. Similar to a bicycle, it's crucial to have complete control of your bar. There are numerous models made from various materials. Choosing the right one depends on personal preference.

Note: The inner diameter is consistent across all grips, so they fit on all bars, unless otherwise specified.

The illustration below shows two grips with bar ends.

Installing Scooter Grips

Installing grips can be challenging; here are some tips:

• Spray some liquid into the grip and on the bar (window cleaner, hairspray). Let it dry!
• Use an air compressor to create an air pocket around the grip, and it will slide right on.
• If all else fails, visit your local bicycle mechanic; they can usually fix it quickly.

Tips and Information on Pro Scooter Grips:

• Grips are replaceable parts and should be replaced when worn out.
• Extra soft grips wear out faster and need replacement sooner than other grips.
• You can use scissors to cut your grips off the bar or trim them to the desired length.
• Bar ends (the separate part you plug into the bar) do not fit into aluminum bars due to the bar's thickness. However, you can make a cut into the bar end to force it into an aluminum bar.
• We recommend using bar ends, as they extend the lifespan of the bar.
