I have recently bought a pair of superstar grinder grips with bar end caps. Do I need to tighten the bar end caps and what with, none of my allen keys fit.
Thanks

    My sons were 2.5mm, some standard key sets don't have a 2.5mm.

    Clearly, memory doesn't serve :oops: . I checked them and mine were also 2.5mm.
