Tim @sideways has some in Mick..
Give him a ring and I'm sure he'll send them over mate.

I'll be honest previous attempts at cutting foam grips would lead me to say no lol

A dead sharp carving knife used like you would a carpentry saw works well at cutting foam grips down in my experience

I wanted the XL extra chunkys and no-one had them, I ordered direct from the ESI, had to pay VAT and RM tax.
ESI said no-one in Europe had ever ordered any, so I had zero chance of finding any.
I do like them but they are very fragile and wear out real quick, I have a few holes appearing in them.
I used to use grab-on on my old racer, don't know if they still exist?

I used ESI and recently swapped to the cork ones Mart recommended above. Much prefer the cork

I did mate the other day but he sold all three pairs he had. I think I'll just have to wait til he's got more stock in. Cheers tho

Have you tried Odi Long Necks? The ribs make it easy to trim.
