Sat.. May 7 at Paul Streeter's house in Shoreview. The special tools will be available, but you will need to have your parts. More details as the date approaches.

gripster or irc gp1

Post by Chris Jennings » Thu Apr 28, 2005 10:12 am

I've put about a thousand miles on a set of Gripsters in the last few weeks and am very happy with them. I've only had one day of any serious rain and had no problems. Gravel and dirt are about all I've bee down that wasn't paved and they seem to work pretty good there as well. --- klr6501995 wrote:
