I have the old style canyon dancer. Had to throw it on the bike before I had a chance to cut some pvc tubing. (okay I bought the wrong size tubing ).

FWIW and no offense BUT if you make sure to push the sleeves all the way to the controls and pull the straps parallel to the bars before you cinch your bike down, you can alleviate a great deal of the grip mashing. Most of the time when grips get wrecked, it's because people don't correctly place the sleeves.
