I was looking at something to take the weight off when i go on some longer distance rides later this summer and came across this, others may be interested as well. I ordered one and should be here in a few days I will report back..

Looks promising. Look fwd to hearing how it works out.

This looks just like the go-cruise except that it is adjustable. I have the go-cruise and it works great, but it tends to slip more often than not. This one looks like you can tighten it!

Here's the go-cruise:

I got it in yesterday afternoon and was only able to go for a short ride, so far its tight enough to where i can fully let go of the throttle and keep up speed no problems. I can see where on a longer ride it should work great to not have to worry about arm pump or hand cramps.

Does it blend in or stick out like a sore thumb to you. I looked at the pictures on the site but they are only going to post the most flattering ones. I'm 2 seconds away from ordering this, so I thought I would ask.

it seems to blend in with the black on the bars and levers pretty easy, if you want to wait about an hour or so i can take a few pics of it (at work atm)

I got to take a ride about 25 miles each away using this tonight. It was worth the money Imo, I like how it worked out.

Order one of these last week, can't go into to much about because as I put the rubber band on it broke. Well that pissed me off so I email the guy and explained what happened. He was really cool about it, said he would send me out some replacemnts and that if those didn't work he has another batch of thicker ones coming in soon.

Hope this works seems like a simple solution to problem, plus he stands by his stuff.

from what his instructions say it can be used without that band if you want, i would think it would have to be on a rubber type grip.

I just use a $.49 0-ring...goes in between the end of the grip and the housing....been using them for years...you just have to find the one that fits your grips...you can also make a little tab using electrical to pop it back out.

Rode the other day without the O-ring and it kind of did what it was intended to do. I haven't hit that sweet spot yet. I would have to adjust it a few times to get it to hold right where I wanted it. But once I got it there it held beutiful. So i still have some adjusting to do. Going to try a longer rider this weekend with/without the O-ring. Just my 2-cents.
