How far apart are the knurlings on each side? I would like to be able to keep a shoulder-width grip without having to grip the smooth part.

This bar is identical to other olympic bars except it doesnt have center knurling. You shouldnt have a problem

Center 16" smooth. Knurling 16" on both sides. I squat and bench like this and have had no issues. You can use cloth athletic tape for grip in the smooth area. I do this and it works great.

You will be fine, the only part that is not knurled is approx 18" in center of bar.

No, they won't work. See how in the picture the right grip is rounded at the top where as the left grip has a cut at the top? That cut is for a right handed safety only. I'm sure they probably make a pair for ambi grips b/c of their popularity, so just look for one that has the cut on both sides. Hope that helps.

I bought mine in November, and they have the T-handle. The knurled knob should be fine (maybe even better); the "T" is a little long, and in comes really close to touching the body of the clamp. So tightening the T can be a little tricky trying to keep your fingers out of the way while you turn the handle.

It's about 2/3 of the way down the handle, but do consider that it's half the width of the blade, which is thicker than the tang on a Ka-Bar.EDIT: This page has a diagram of the tang.http://www.moraofsweden.se/morakniv/companion-mg-50.0.202.2?group=prod_prod_grp-s1%2F41

You would have to loosen them each time to rotate them. They take up quite a bit more space than regular grips. Wouldn't really recommend if space is an issue.

I can't give you the answer to that since I've added more knuckles than the norm but I would suggest contacting the manufacturer. They are extremely helpful. http://www.efficientvelo.com/

I recently installed mine and had to make about a 270 degree adjustment from snug. I had to put my upper in a padded vice and used a long round punch through the slots for leverage. It took a grunt with two hands but it came around. I'm sure I could have gone further.

The Troy Olympic bar I received measured roughly 1-3/16'' or 30mm on the knurled grip

Thank you for the answer, I have already wasted money on grips too big for this gun! Appreciate your time.

The bar is too thin, so the fat gripz won't be gripping tight the bar. You can still somehow use them, but it's far from ideal.

I have the Weider 200 Power Tower (love it by the way). I just measured the VKR arms and they are right at about 23.5" apart - that's from the center of one pad (where your forearms go when you're in position) to the center of the other pad. I'm 5'8" and a small (male) frame and they are fine for me. You'll need to mark off 23.5" inches and try to simulate. If you fit, I think you will really like the Power Tower.

Well, my suggestion to this matter would be to create an gripper that has would be equal no matter what hand or how you turn it in your hand. The way it is now feels different from right to left hand.

"Correction"M. Murphy is correct. These particular grips work only on the "Square Butt". However, Houge makes some for the N frame "Round Butt" as well.

The outside diameter of the bar is 1" and your hand comfortably wraps around it. It offers a secure and sturdy grip handhold, especially with the knurled surface. Your hand is not likely to slip off easily.

The grip is 11" ( new in package) and these are very nice grips. Length may vary a little after you install.

It is a little long, but I just put it next to my grip, got a rough estimate of how much to trim off. Laid it flat (squeezed it together) and trimmed both sides at the same time. So that it's the same on both sides. One cut. Make sure you're clear of your safety, on the back of the grip. I bought the grip tape, and put it under. It's not that thick. It keeps it in place, and it hasn't ripped or moved. And you can still take it off, if you want to.

should be fine if its round, if its rectangular the short side should work. Just be sure to mount them on a clean, hopefully non-porous surface for the best grip. I have some in place for over a year now and the mounts are just as tight as day 1.
