A'me Tri (Upper Case Bubble Font) Grips

The second version of the A'ME Tri grips still maintained the bubble font appearance but the letters were in all upper case. The early 80's A'ME Tri's had a single embossed logo. The later versions had the logo embossed twice on the flange, 180 degrees apart.

A'me Cam Grips

A'ME CAM Grips were originally pre-released to the selected pro riders in late 1979. They officially hit the stores in 1980. These were the first grips that A'ME put on the market.

A'ME CAM Grips originally came in white, black, gray, red, yellow and blue.

In 2010, A'ME reissued the original A'ME CAM Grips for their 30th Anniversary. The NEW A'ME CAM Grips are composed of Vulcathane™, a specially blended rubber compound combined with UV stabilizing ingredients that exhibit superior oxidation and ozone resistance. As a result, A'ME CAM Grips will not absorb moisture, deteriorate, harden, or become slick with age all the while providing extremely durability and superior comfort.
