Yeah, just make sure to sand down any sharp edges, just like you would on your shifters and brake levers.

by cranking a bar end too tight. You might want to put a solid plug in the end of the bar just to be safe. I doubt you would crack it with the small diameter screw in the lock ring on those grips, but better safe than sorry.

...and they haven't left behind any distinguishing marks to cause me to think they'd violate the warranty any more than my stem clamp, brake levers or shifters do (which do leave faint scuffs in the outer finish).

Running the DH monkeylites w/ Odi and no problem. ..you don't need to torque that much to get the grips to stay in place..

You should contact Easton to get the lowdown on the warrenty..

GLuck..

Last year riding with Friend with them on. He broke his Monkey lite bar,, on a drop, the bar snap in line with the inside clamp. That was good enought for me.
