Does anyone know about grip skins? I cant seem to find any black ones, all I find is the clear ones. OR would I just be better off going and getting some grip tape or something of that matter? My cityX frame is just to much silver. A little black would make it look so much better to me. Any help?
Thanks guys!

I spent the $ on actual gripskins.
Only to see the EXACT same sticky rubber at home depot for waaaay less than half.
Your call anything grippy will work there.
Don't waste the money.

Buelltroll, what dept. did you see the grip
tape in? the only thing they came up with
at home depot was stuff you put around
windows but it's sticky on both sides, i'm
here in Arizona so i'm hoping it's not a
regional thing, any help would be appreciated.....

I dont know what a gripskin is, but if youre talking about griptape, your local sports/skateboard shop usually has the stuff. Try and be nice if Im talking about the wrong stuff. Skateboard griptape is like sandpaper. Not sure if thats what youre looking for. Im looking into custom vinyl graphics right now. Found a place that prints them for reasonable prices.

I have the snakeskin from techspec and I like it a lot. Feel like friggin' Spiderman when hanging off the bike. Definitely adds to "staying on the bike" confidence.
