Suberb bar grip
I bought the black grip for my old bike 3 years ago and its so good I bought another pair recently for my new bike and I like the new end caps better than the old ones. Large soft rubber blocks with wide spacing give excellent mechanical grip and the soft rubber is high friction. If they keep making these I'll keep buying them every time I get a new bike. Only detraction is that the screws that clamp them to the bar can rust easily like a lot of other screws/bolts so you need to oil/grease them when you first install the grips.

I have a 4 year old Focus Black Raider 4.0 which has served me well, done many miles to work and back, as well as taking me fishing along the local canal tow-paths. Now that I've retired it's time I do an up-grade on it and this is my first buy as the old grips needed replacing badly. These are really good grips, solid,yet nice in the hands. I can highly recommend them.

Chunky!
Nice chunky grips. Ive not got big hands but prefer larger grips. These are just the job.

Easy to fit, grippy & comfortable
The grips were fitted within 5 minutes using just an allen key. The grip itself has a thick gel-like soft grip that helps to absorb vibration and makes for a smoother feel. Very good.

Great grips, if you like them chunky
These are thick grips and relatively soft which makes them very comfortable. Grip is excellent and they seem durable. I've used the thinner Odi Ruffians previously but feel I have much more control with these and they are really comfortable. Don't think they work for small hands though. Happy riding!

Soft, big grips
I wanted some grips that were more suitable for big hands. These fit the bill perfectly. A bit annoying that the locking collars don't already come attached to the grips, takes a LOT of force to get those on.
No instructions either.
Apart from that they installed easily and are great to ride with.

Grippy and comfy
good dependable grippy grips - work for me being a bit bigger than some grips

Saved my poor hands!
I love these grips. I was experiencing problems in the knuckle area of my hand following long technical rides and these seem to have sorted it out. The slightly chunkier size makes gripping easier and they are very soft as well. I've only ridden them a short distance without gloves, but they felt super-tacky. I cannot recommend these highly enough.
Oh, and you can also buy loads of customizable lock-on clamps from their website if you're into that kink of bling.

amazing grips
I feel like I don't have to hold onto my bike as hard riding with these grips. Less fatigue and awesome grip!

great grips
these are a step up from any other brand. machining tolerances are very tight. an essential upgrade.

nice and grippy
Fit well, good grip.
less cushioning than OEM Giant trance grips, but a little larger diameter = more comfortable

Grippy, Secure and good grip size.
Fantastic lock-on grips. Easy to install. Great grip. Highly recommend these.

Expensive but good
Many of the lock-on type grips are quite thin and hard, providing little comfort even when wearing gloves. These grips are thick and made from soft-feel rubber, so give both cushioning and good 'grippability'. My hands are medium-sized, and these are fine for me. Watch out when ordering - these grips come in standard packs (without the locking rings) and bonus packs (with the locking rings).

Only gave this a four star because there's always room for improvement.....but ODI grips are probably the best grips money can buy!

Great lock on grip for those that want a bit more padding/larger grip. Great quality & very comfortable. Would buy the same again.

Very comfortable, great product
Great grips, very comfortable, no slipping on the handle bars, best grips i have ever had

nice and soft. wish they had blue colour
Was considering Ruffians, then found somewhere that Ruffians are the hardest, Yetis the softest, and Rogues are inbetween. Took the middle road and they are nice, soft enough, may be slightly harder than Ouris.
The end cap limits how far the grips can go on the handlebars, so if you are replacing other brand with ODI, the inner ends of ODIs will sit few mm closer to the bar end - not a big deal.

Fantastic grips
Have purchased before and highly recommend. Nice and thick, grippy and no hand tingles after a long ride.

Nice grips!
These are nice chunky grips, similar to my previous favourites Oury but not as slippery when wet & maybe even a touch larger diameter (haven't measured them to compare). Great for those like me with big hands. Ample cushioning as well! Would definitely recommend.

Better suited to big hands
Thick but not as soft as I would have liked. Caused some hand fatigue, but maybe I have small hands. I found the Race Face - Good and Evil more comfortable.

dont buy anything else!
been using sunline grips happily for ages, which are great, but when i upraded to carbon bars i didnt like the grub srcews which pinch the bar to hold them secure. been avoiding the odi for a while as they are expensive for a bit of rubber! however, they are amazing, they apply even clamping pressure around the bars. super grippy, tried both dry and wet and perform great. will be buying again

Great stuff
Absolutely spot on if you have larger hands. Simple as that.

odi rouge grips

would recommend them to anybody

Very grippy
These are super comfortable grips - particularly if you have large hands like mine. Wide stance of these beauties is nice and tacky, supplying an extra bit of cushioning for your mits. Great for all day rides, or flogging DH on rough tracks.
The lock-on are rock solid, no slippage imparting lots of confidence.

Chunky and firm
I'm a big fan of fat, squishy Ourys but Wiggle didn't have their lock-ons, and I was tired of fussing with the old-school grips that need to be yanked off and then slipped on with hairspray. The Rogues look similar with a nice fat diameter and chunky grip.
The lock-on works well and I've had no slippage while riding, but getting the locking metal rings onto the end of the grips was a hassle - they're not pre-fitted and I almost broke one trying to push it on. The rubber grip itself is well-suited for larger hands but it is very firm - the grips will probably last forever which adds value (they're not cheap), but I do get some trail buzz which softer rubber grips can tune out.
The metal ODI-logo end caps are a nice touch and look good, even with the inevitable scuffs and scrapes from crashes and being leaned against rocks. Until Wiggle stocks the Oury lock-on, I'd choose these again.

Awesome
One more detail about the specification of ODI Rogue grip:
Outer diameter: 33mm
Review:
# easy set-up as expected. (it's the character of Lock-On grip, isn't it?)
# remains grippy even when the gloves are totally soaked (6 hrs in the heavy rain).
# very comfortable while climbing a few miles of hill by wiggling the bike and pulling the handlebar simultaneously. (the size of my hands is about Size 8-9, and I started feeling that my fingers were digging into my palm after only 10 mins while using my previous grip with an O.D. of ~29-30mm.)
# good shock absorption and the bike still stayed in control while riding downhill through a rocky trail at 40 mph. (the trail is designated for the heavy plant using in extracting timber around Aberfoyle.)
# the anodised layer of the lock ring is not very thick, so the contact point (diameter of ~2mm) of the lock ring with the ground can be seen just after flipping my bike upside down once.
