Mark Nobel over at Deluxe BMX just posted this image of their new grips.

Here’s what he had to say about them:

“Here they are – finally – our first new grip… we’ve been testing these for months now, and they’re finally out. First things first, they might not be for everyone – if you like skinny grips that will wear out in approximately a fortnight, then these won’t be for you. They are mansize, coming in at 150mm long and 30mm diameter. Next up, they’re actually made from recycled rubber (just trying to do our environmental part – or at least, raise some awareness). They feel awesome – soft, durable, they wear in really well, and feel bloody great. The first batch comes in four colours – red, black, brown, or mottled green. And they’re called Shovelhands – thanks to Chris for helping out with the graphics design! As this is not just a mushroom with a logo slapped on the middle, here’s an explanation for the grip pattern… sorta line up the logos, pixelate the logos, make a barcode pattern, that sort of thing. And it works a treat. Out now…”
