dark brown grips - who sells them?

[subadrew]

I'm looking for some that'll match this saddle. Brooks and Dapper Dan make some that are close, but they're also $45-70.

TIA

Electra has dark brown grips that will set you back $30. http://store.electrabike.com/eSourc...GRIPS__Dark_Brown__2_LONG/i_1_0_/_750019.aspx

yeah I saw those. Note sure I like the style... and very matte finish.

Tandy Leather has some DIY dark leather bar wrap in a box near the front door labeled "scrap" Very reasonable.... ;-)

I saw these the other day and bookmarked them. Don't think I've seen anyone use them before.

I have a set of those, pretty comphy, hand filling and goes with black or brown saddles.
BTW, on those that look too 'flat' in the sheen, you can get finishes (like paint top coats) for leather to help match up the polish on the saddle. Try Tandy or horse tack places.

Have you tried using faux leather bar tape? You might be able to make something work. I used it on my bike but it is more of a honey brown color, found it on ebay for 10$

pics?

I was thinking about the bar tape, but I think I just like real grips more. Still haven't found anything that I really like... =/

they look just like these. but in real life they are darker.

Take a look at the Felt bikes website, click on parts and find their grips.
