ODI Rogue

I recently got some ODI rogue grips after seeing them on a friend's bike. Previously I had SRAM (lock ons) and they were ok, but didn't provide any cushioning and the end caps were a bit flimsy. The ODI grip is a very well engineered product. The rings engage very securely with the grip and use a hefty 2.5mm hex, that can withstand enough torque to secure the grip but not damage the bar or strip the bolt. The end caps, while only plastic, fit securely. Aside from excellent shock absorption properties, the grips seem to work better for my extra large hands due to the larger circumference, compared to thinner grips. Finally, at only $20 at ExcelSports in Boulder as of this writing, these are a steal!
