So what you mean is that changing where you hold your bars has an effect, not grip length. Gotcha.

If that was the case i wouldnt have changed grips. But no, longer grips place my hands closer to the bends so i have to move them further before i do any hop" " trick. Shorter grips keep my hands further from the bends thus eliminating the need to move my hands at all.

Rode it before work for the first time in ages, I'm gonna be nackered tonight. And it's a sad state of affairs when your road bike is dirtier than your mountain bike, what has my life become?

You know you don't have to hold your grips right in the middle, right?
