Part of the higher expense of the "Portugese" cork grips sold by
Rivendell is due to the more precise bore.

If you do feel the need to use adhesive, a very small amount should be
fine.  A carpenter's glue such as Titebond II or III should provide
adequate adhesion and still allow clean removal when you wish.

Gorilla Glue is excessive for this application; you don't need this
level of strength to avoid the tendency of a grip to twist on the
bar.  It's an expanding polyurethane.  Use just a bit too much, and
you'll see what this means.  It's very difficult to remove hardened PU-
based glue from surfaces; you can scrape/sand some of it away, but
good luck trying to get it all off.

If you doubt the capability of carpenter's glues, then consider 5-
minute epoxy rather than GG.  A small smear of epoxy will provide more
bond than is really necessary, but it will be easier to apply and
clean than GG.
