Any tips to stop handlebar grips slipping

[Ericck]

My handlebar grips are starting to slip round and down the bars,
so as sometimes they are almost coming off.

Obviously I could just glue them but would then maybe have to cut
them off if I wanted to remove them for any reason at a later date.

Any tips on how to keep them in place appreciated

Btw bike is a claud butler urban.

I've seen hairspray recommended.

This is a potentially dangerous issue. I fell off my 1939 Elswick when pulling on the bars and I pulled the grip off in my hand and

Hairspray is my weapon of choice. Very slippery when wet yet it dries like glue.

Super glue. You can still get the grips off if you need to. (Though it's probably safer to use hairspray.)

I tried the hairspray thing but it didnt work for me. In the end I splashed out on some Ergon grips which have an inbuilt clamp.

double sided tape on the bars and white spirt on the inside of the grips to get them on.

Another vote here for hairspray. Remove the grips, clean the bars, make sure they're completely dry, put a light spray on the bars or inside the grips, wham them on and then leave for a while to set.

Thanks.

Just checked my daughters room, big tin of hairspray in there,
so I'll give it a try

Not using bike again until tomorrow so should have time to dry okay.

go buy lock on grips? they'll be easy to put on and adjust but stay on properly when tightened up, I love my spesh ones
