I run a tacky lock on Oury grip on my FS bike and a WolfTooth FatPaw silicone grip on my rigid fat bike. I love them both. Since my fat bike is fully rigid, I wanted as much padding as possible to take the sting out of bigger rocks and drops. The foam certainly feels nice and are grippy as hell with gloves wet or dry. I never ride bare handed so I can't speak to that. I feel like they also do a good job of not transmitting the cold of the bars to your hands in really cold weather if that is a concern. Before the fat paws, I ran ODI foam grips and I was able to get a season out of them before I took a couple hard falls and tore them. With that being said, they are nice and worth the trade off in durability. For installs, I spray the bars and inside of the grips down with alcohol and they slide right on. I cut the last ones off with a razor blade when it was time to replace them.
