most probably if the tube-diameter of the handlebars are the same

I'm fairly sure any grips will fit any bike as long as they're not from an ATV which has a smaller right handlebar diameter.
I've tried lots of different ones and there's not much between them. They're all soo much better than nothing.

The thermostate with the dial seems to be the weak piont of that Oxford Grip version..... Mine broke and I know of 2 others that also broke. I'd go for the up down sealed switch on the new version if I were you.

Agreed, I've got the dial version, the LED red light is not working anynore, just waiting for the thermostat to go inop next.

I emailed Oxford yesterday about a replacement thermostat. The first older style one was broken when bought and they replaced it (after some hassle). And the newer style one broke before autumn. I've had them since last october and not been able to use them in cold weather yet!!

I'll have another spare oxford switch sometime soon, mine are always on full so I replace the control box with a simple on/off switch. Might even do it this weekend if I find the time, I've got to get the front off the bike anyway to unbend it. So, pm me in a wee bit to remind me.
