[RBW] Re: Current cork grip gluing BKM?

2023-09-10 Thread Alex Wirth
It's tricky because you can split the grip if you're not careful doing it 
this way buttypically adding one strip of newbaums  lengthwise on the 
bar adds enough friction to keep everything snug and in place.  Only use 
one piece about 1/3 to half the length of the grip. Start with less and see 
how the fit isI've found that the inner diameter of the grips has 
changed slightly over the years.

I've used Permatex.  I think I got them off but can't remember how.
