    This is sort of a noob question, but what kind of grips do I use for a bictory? I know for comssa profiles and RSVP hggs but what about Bictory?

    Note that I only want to collect this pen so yeah.... I usually spin with my commsa metallic though

    Considering that the original BICtory did not have to have grips by default, you can use whatever you want. mwahaha91 recommended using the Uni-Ball Signo grip, since they really are not used for anything else. tongue.gif

    Usually, BICtories are given grips from...
    Papermate Profiles
    Dong-A Anyballs
    Pilot G2s
    Pentel RSVPs

    I usually use Profiles, myself, but I also have a UCPSB BICtory with RSVP grips turned inside-out. thumb.gif

    i've really been liking the way the Bictory mods look with RSVP grips lately they dont look too bulgy the way the Anyball grips make it look.

    i find that a dr. grip grip cut into 4ths makes the BEST grip IMHO. Well its pefect for me. biggrin.gif. plus u get 2 pens out of 1 grip

    To stay on topic, have no bic round stice here, what else to use despite Bic Cristal Gel that is round from bic and nearly similar in body?

    well, idk what is being sold in germany, but there are bic supoer round sticks, and then there are papermate Eagles, which are waaay better than bictorys! *by the way, ftw means for the win smile.gif*

    Bic Round sticks are different than Bic Crystals. I could send you some when you buy some RSVP from me ^^

    A couple of days ago, I put whole G2 grips onto the ends of a BICtory. I decided it didn't have enough momentum, so I glued Signo tips into the ends of the grips, like so (the Profile bands are just for show):


    Spoiler:


    To do this, push the ends of the G2 grips up to the clip band on the Bic caps:


    Spoiler:


    Then, just dab some glue on your tip and stick it in there. You may need to pinch the grip a tiny bit to get the glue to make contact, but it'll look nice and round in the end.

    For my first BICtory i put G2 grips on each end, and the back plug thing on an rsvp in the extra part hanging off




    There is also a foam grip, but i soon realized how dumb that looked

    I don't think there was any need to revive the topic. But if you really want to improve your BICtory, add some nice white grips on black capped BICtory. Then add tips at the ends and few black rings on the white grip. The spinning effect will be awesome.

    i think i heard someone say that if u cut zebra airfit grips in half and stick them at the end the momentum is pretty good...

    bictories dont have grips and that is why they lack momentum. i just use standard tombow grips u can buy in pack of 3. made out of foam to maintain the ligh feel of bictory mods. or else, use Dr Grip, super grip, or profiles

    i use 2 signos, tap the tip and then put grips on each side, the momentum of the tip is pretty nice
