Carbon Fiber Strait Handles for Daiwa

[78Staff]

So, have four TD-Z 103's coming from Japan, and would like to replace the 80mm handles. Either with the 100M 90mm version if I can find a few, or may even look at some strait 95mm carbon fiber handles. I've got a couple ZPI & Bassart handles on some Personal Orders, but even if I could find some more of those, I really don't want to drop $4-500 on handles . Anyone used the overseas ones from AliExpress and the like? They are ridiculously inexpensive compared to ZPI, almost to the point I'd worry about getting a carbon fiber sticker on a alum handle. Any other options to consider? I think Abu's will work but don't know if they even offer a strait CF handle.

I've also got a Megabass IS63 with an 80mm handle I want to change out to a 90mm... I can get a Type R handle for $90 from TT, but wouldn't mind finding a less costly swept replacement. I see MB makes a 90mm CF but I haven't run across one on the usual sites.

The aliexpress ones are good and cheap.

SDS Custom ones are on the bay. They are excellent and ship from Ukraine. They take 1-2 weeks to get here but for the price can't be beat. He usually includes a free gift bait in the package as well.

Hawgetch, if you are ok with a handle nut retainer that looks like an upside down frying pan.

SDS - I saw those, have been talking to him about some of his handles. Two weeks that is not bad, the listings say over a month for delivery.

Hawgtech - I always forget about those, I will check them out as well

Thanks

Ordered a few from Sergey, will try them out. Also need a swept, but didn't realize until after i placed an order, so am on the lookout for a swept 90/95mm swept Daiwa/MB, ZPI, Bassart etc if anyone has one laying around...
