First, they removed the old grips by slicing them off with a razor. They then slid the Grab-On over the bar about 1" or so. Taking an air hose with a nozzle, they stuck it inside of the Grab-On and squeezed the Grab-On to form a seal around the nozzle. With someone else plugging the other end of the handlebar, they inflated the Grab-On with the air and just slid it on. Worked slicker than a whistle. My current bike is due for a new set of grips and I am planning on using this trick again. Give it a shot and see how it works. Dustin Kassman !hplabs!hp-pcd!dhk
