How to Install Handlebar Grips on a Mountain Bike: A Step-by-Step Guide
To install handlebar grips on a mountain bike, first remove the old grips by cutting them off or loosening the bar end plugs and sliding them off. Apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol to the handlebars and inside of the new grips to help them slide on easily. Align the grips as you desire and ensure they are evenly spaced, then insert the bar end plugs. Allow the grips to dry for a few hours before using your bike to ensure they stay in place.
