ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to an approved grip which is placed over a tubular handle bar such as for example on a bicycle handle bar. The grip comprises a tubular grip section having an outer shell and an inner expandable hub communicating with an end of the grip section. There is a space between the outer shell and inner hub so that the handle bar can be inserted into the grip section and between the outer shell and inner hub. The hub has an aperture tapering from its largest dimension at the end of the grip section communicating with said hub to its narrowest dimension at its other end. A cylindrical core having a diameter slightly smaller than the tapered aperture at its largest dimension and a larger diameter at its narrowest dimension has a groove extending circumferentially about the exterior for defining a lip section. When the core is inserted into the aperture, the hub is expanded and the lip section can engage the end of the hub and provide a tight seal.
