Favorite grip for swept back bars?

[jasonification]

Managed to grab a Surly Open Bar from my local co-op. Hoping to use it for the Bike Friday tandem! Any suggestions regarding grips? Am debating between ESI chunkys and Ergons..

Timely post.
I just installed some Protaper 2020's last night and moved over my Wolftooth Fatpaw grips. I like the ESI Chunkies, but I love the Fatpaw. It's a slightly softer silicone rubber foam and comes as 36mm diameter.

Ergon GC1's are made for swept bars. I'm using a set on my Koga Denham bar equipped touring bike and have been impressed with their comfort.

I would agree and suggest these as well.

Running the Map/Ahearne bar on my Rex. Similar stats to the Surly Open Bar. Started with Ergon GC1, but didn't like them and went with ESI Extra Chunky.

Also, this site is friggin' awesome for visual comparison.

Thanks all! Ended up going ESI due to budget constraints..

I have both ESI and cork chops. Not on the same bike though...
