MHX winn grip

Hi, I´m building a finesse spinning rod for bass. The Blank is a MHX HM SJ841.
I want to build it with Aero reel seat in size 17 because I have big hands.
So the first question; winn grip or not? If not I would put eva grip. I have never tested the winn grip, so I doubt.
I like the MHX winn grip but I have seen it would be in 16 size.
So the second question, if I decide mhx winn grip, I should buy the aero reel seat in size 16 or I can fit the MHX winn grip with the aero 17?
Thanks!!

The folks at Mudhole should be able to tell you if that grip will fit the 17 seat. I'd give them a call or an email to find out.

The 17mm aero seat is sized to except a standard 1.0 to 1.1 inch diameter cork grip, same size that goes behind a 16 -18mm casting reel seat. I bet the MHX casting split grip, or full length rear grip will slide right into the pocket.

Spencer is correct, get the FSG-387 grip and it will work fine with the Aero-17

But will the MHX-RSG3T fit behind a Aero 17 spinning grip?
