Default Stompgrips

Of the people who have used Stompgrips,how many have tried to ride a bike without them and found that they can't?

I'm so used to mine, I'd probably feel like I was sliding off the bike without them. Stompgrip makes you feel nice & planted.

Never Ridden with them So dunno what its like without them...My Buddy rides with them though and he seems to like them.

Although he did say that hig Leather one peice was starting to rub off and could possibly cause a tear from riding with the Stomgrip.

Dude, as soon as I bought my new bike and put on around 400 miles without them, I started missing mine very much. So I bought some on Saturday and I feel normal again.
