Alas, I’ve finally succumbed to the fact that I hate the grips on my Trixie (a Linus Mixte). The color is all wrong and after riding a bike with shellacked cork grips, I’ve decided to go that route. I’m now waiting from some to come in at my the local bike shop. I’ll do a tutorial on installing them once they arrive. Hopefully they’ll look something like Kim’s bike Sandy below.
(Ps. Happy Birthday Kim!)
While I was looking up literal cork grips I came upon this site… Cork Grips. It’s a little All Plaid Out with a heavy bike/out doors focus. Love. Links to a few of my favorite posts are below:
