My Oxford Heaterz came with a 3 gram tube of Superglue. The tube said “Superglue”. Recently, I had to re-do the left grip after yanking the bike off the chock. I got some Gorilla Glue brand Super Glue Gel. A little less runny when applying to the handlebar, but sets up like the original - very fast. BTW if you happen to find yourself in need of a new throttle tube, the Motion Pro 01-0052 will do the job.

Nope. Sorry, I understand now that hair spray could be a wrong answer. But I was surprised how well it worked fixing standard grips.

Darn, I was hoping not to have to use Superglue next time. Terrible stuff to work with. Gel-type is a little better, but not much. I do love my Heaterz, though.

It is not that difficult to remove the grip. Grasp the bar-end weight, remove the screw holding it and pull it off the handlebar. The power cable is plenty long, so just create some slack so you can pull the grip off. You can file or sand down that bit of plastic, or not if it doesn’t bother you having the grip that far away from the controls. Make sure the grip slides back on fairly easily. Figure out exactly how you want the grip to be positioned. (I marked the grip where it lines up with the break between the two halves of the switch control, because when you install the grip you only have a moment before the glue sticks.) Oxford recommends - and supplies a 3g tube in the kit - Superglue. They say other glues can’t handle the heat. It’s pretty messy stuff (the gel-type is a little less runny) so cover everything in sight with rags. Some glue will, of course, squeeze out the end, so be ready. Give it 24 hours to set.

I used my wife's old hair spay . Works perfectly.

Was this with heated grips?
