single clamp lock on grips

Cqc

Hiya, as in the title I'm looking for some single clamp lock on grips- i.e. Just the clamp on the inside, after my excellent dual clamp nukeproof grips have worn out, and was wondering what options are out there apart from half Nelsons which are a bit pricy. Thanks

Charge griddles, specialized, hopes, renthals

Charge - look blisteringly grippy-ouch
Hope and renthal- too expensive
Specialized- one of them looks quite good.
Thanks so far mate, and just so everyone knows I don't want half wafile. Anything else out there?

Half nelsons are meant to be awesome, though I'm currently a fan of the new Easton carbon friendly lock ons. Come in either a thick or thin size and while they're twin clamps the rubber (well technically elastametric polyurethane) goes over the clamps and I've found them super comfy and I tend to ride with my hands right on the end of the bars. Seem to be lasted really well too, had a few rides on them and the still look like they have just come out of the packet. IMO it's better to spend a little more on grips as they tend to last longer and are better quality. ODI have just launched an Arran Gwin signature model with only one clamp, could also be worth a look.

FWIW Half nelsns are the business. Specialized ones are good too, and pretty cheap, but they dont last that well.

DMR loccd are secure, super-soft and grippy. Can't comment on durability yet, as i haven't used them much.

Bontrager make some pretty nice ones.

ESI's are pretty good too. They're slip on grips but they never ever budge and are super easy to install and remove when you know how (takes the right size bar plug and a little IPA to install and some zip ties to remove them). The only problem with them is you have to leave them for about a day to stick to the bar properly so not as quick as lock ons.
