I bought Roxter grips for about £25. They are great- seem to use them at 50% most of the time. A good mod for any grips is to seal the controller with silicone seal as this is what usually fails due to water ingress.

I ride in all weathers and have Oxford Grips with Oxford V8 controllers. I got the controllers from Black Circles (eBay) at £25, they seem to work fine and have a useful range of powers.

For my next bike I'll do the same TBH.

I bought some of those 20quid heated grips coupled to an Eastern Beaver relay and they are great, no problems so far.

yeah they are re badged oxford stuff they also do waterproofs and bike covers as well..I had a pair of roxter ones but found they didnt go warm enough as they only had a low/high toggle switch ..might splash out and get a pair of oxford or r&g ones ..

Fantastic, reliable.
+1 to these.
Been on 2 years now no problems. Just be careful when changing worn grips that you don't cut through the heating elements.
