Grips are typically one of the last things added to a scooter during an assembled and since they are a generally minor part, it's truly baffling to scooter kids when they need to trust that grips will dry. Conventional techniques for introducing grips include utilizing some sort of moderately fast drying ointment to permit the grips to slip on to the bars.
