Hi all - trying to find source for CFX 3" tapered split grip that fits Aero 16 seat. See link below. MudHole is currently out of stock. Or do you know of other similar Carbon Grips that are shaped similarly to fit the Aero 16 Seat? Below is link to CFX site showing the grip.

Thanks

I've used the North Fork NFCG021C01 with these reel seats and it worked fine.

I use the 17 mm version so I can use the same grips that I use for my trigger seats no matter the material or type.

Was able to dig into this a bit further and find what looks to be three other Carbon Fiber Split Grips that will mate up nicely with the Aero size 16 seat. The front of the grip where it mates into Aero seat needs to be ~25mm or 0.98 inches OD. See below:

NFCG010C01 from Northfork Composite at following link: [northforkcomposites.com]
This will work and perk that it comes in multiple colors

FCSGRGS4-350 from Forecast (Batson) at following link: [batsonenterprises.com]

FCRGS3.625-250 also from Forecast (Batson) at following link: [batsonenterprises.com]

I believe the Forecast grips are also available in some other colors.

Anyhow, thanks for the feedback. It helped get me searching in the appropriate places and figured I'd throw up some links to what I have found.
