I've just put some sundance grips on my new PX headset, problem is there seems to be a gap between the grips and headset. What do you guys put between the grips and headset as I think this looks a bit untidy and will probably let in water. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Graham. :D

I cut off the larger diameter section of the original grips with a hacksaw blade (so you end up with a sort of large 5mm thick washer) then slipped that on before the sundance grips..

You might want to also wrap some masking tape to the inner throttle tube so that the grub screws in the Sundance grips get a firm hold and don't begin to slide in use.
