The item above is what I am refering to but I just looked at the new style premier handles and they look a little different so I can't recommend them because I have never tried them.

The carbons are nice but all of the ones I have used had the paint flake and one or two broke. I like the premier grip much better (on the one on ebay).

Proline LG. Its a chamois grip (like leather) and it gets tacky when wet. The very first models had some problems but CWB fixed them.

i have the premier and and i love it and every other person who i've heard has used it has loved it too. i also have the byerly handle and i like that too but i like the premier better. i've heard nothing but BAD reviews about carbon fiber handles though, that the paint chips and they break too easily. i really wouldnt get carbon fiber especially for the money...why does a handle need to be light anyway? you're not really carrying it so it doesnt weigh you down

Highly suggest the Straight Line Eclipse (or any SL Carbon, I like the Eclipse grip). It's a wicked handle.
