bar grip replacement
Does any one have a recommendation for adding grip to a depower bar. I've tried tennis racket tape but it didn't last.
It's an 08 liquid force bar. Unfortunatley Lf grips their bars with a cheap foam that rubs off and turns your hands black.

Hypalon is one choice.
Google the materials used for grips on fishing rods. The come in different lengths, internal diameters, profiles (round, oval, octagonal, etc.), and
materials.
The upside is that because of their intended use, they are generally well suited to salt water/UV environments.
Here are two sources:

Hope that helps.

here's one for u
i used an old yoga mat and MARINE GOOP.
wrap in compression & let it sit, comfy, effective, low buck
colors was whack though , kinda like getting ultra shiny one piece ski suit , you just have to drop some serious skills or you look ultra goofy
