Yeah, grosgrain is a little stiff for a full closure cinch. It works ok on the ends of my Uq because I don't have to go for full closure.
If I was to do it again I would use something lighter like twill tape or just fold a hem and channel the ends without an edge binder.
On another note, I used 7/8" grosgrain and it is a little tight getting the cord to feed and run smoothly. A wider tape would be much better.
