That was the first thing I put on my bike. I don't like sliding around on my bikes.

About to order mine. Going with the Snake Skin. Looks great on all of my neighbor's bikes.

I emailed Tech-Spec and they sent me a sample of all three styles. I thought I would like the look of the High Fusion Grip, but it's just too thin and slippery feeling. Might make a good tank protector, like a Mag Knight, but not really grippy. The C3 Grip is just TOO spongy and soft.

I've had the snake skin on the bike for 18 months/27k miles and it still looks as good as when it was new. It's wearing really well and should last for quite a few years, imo.
