Title: Handlebar grips
Post by: guest7 on October 22, 2009, 10:12:37 PM

Can any of you wise fellows tell me where I can get a set of classic-looking grips in a light brown colour? I didn't get much chance to shop at Stafford and when I did glance at the autojumble I didn't spot any.

Cheers

Buy some cheap black ones and leave them in the Sun to 'mature'.

I see you've given the word sun a capital letter, does this use as a proper noun suggest the Sun newspaper rather than the glowing orb that oversees us all? It's certainly the first time I've heard anyone suggest that exposure to the Sun (newspaper) could bring about any level of maturity.  ;) :)

Try wrapping cheese in it.

It matures the cheese and improves the newspaper.

The glowing orb of which you speak is overseas

Mind you the Sun (newspaper) is full of sh1t so might turn anything stuffed in it brown  ;D
