I have both ruffians and rogues, but the ruffians feel super slippery when wet, and they get a little hard in chilly water. The rogues have always stayed soft. Do I just need to break the ruffs in? What makes you guys like them more?
stainless? the odi's have aluminum lock rings and i wouldnt consider them to be junk.
i prefer the rogues over the ruffians. the ruffians are too small. the rogues are thick and squishy.
i think im liking the ergo grips tho... gotta try a set.
I have not tried them on a moving pole yet, but may when my ODI's wear out.

My stock grips were tearing me up even with gloves, so I bought some used Rogues.
I had some trouble with the install (don't laugh - I just needed a couple more rings).
I wanted to go ride so, inspired by this thread I bought these at a local bike shop to try out:

They are fantastic!! They aren't lockons so I Gorilla glued them, but there is a 100% improvement on hand fatigue and blister burn. I'm definitely sold on ergo grips.
One more thing, I know this is weird but I tried them all different ways before installing them and liked the way the felt better when they are rotated 180* - the skinnier side is nearest the throttle, and the grey part facing the nose, and makes kind of a wedge that gives you more leverage than reaching over more rounded side of the grip. They really feel perfect.
