Turns out 130 is just slightly too long - how do I get the grips off these mommas to cut em down? Is this just like mtb grips, a little hairspray and something hard to pull against? hmmm...

something about hot water and a door...lemme look. Mine should be here tomorrow, weren't they 125 or 135 cm ?
here ya go !
L7 sez : Stick the grip in a pot of boiling water to soften any glue and expand the rubber/plastic. Put them in a door jam or vice and start yanking.Bacon tastes good. Pork chops taste goood.

Excellent. I got the 130s early on. But I shoulda gotten the 125s. Oh well, pipe cutters will produce a very custom 127.5/127.3...sweeeet.

I put mine in a vice and yanked, off like butter.
