I've decided to share small tip how to make quite comfy and light grips out of handlebar tape. I've made them because I put together new bike and didn't decide which available on the market grips I'll use. As a temporary solution is perfect. Sometimes as you know temporary solutions stays longer than you will expect ;-)
You'll need bar tape (cork or gel is the best I think, basically thick one), pair of scissors, old inner tube and electrical tape. Whole procedure in pictures. Pictures worth thousands words...
