Any suggestions? I don't particularly care for the foam ones. OEM are a bit pricey.

Thanks

For several years I ran Spider slim line SLR grips and liked them a lot.

When I needed a set for the SV my dealer was out of stock and I tried the Driven diamond grippy and am sold on a new grip. They are fairly large in diameter and fairly stiff but the texture is very grippy. I find that if I take advantage of the 'grip' (pun intended) I do not need to squeeze the grip as much and as a result have less fatigue. Plus the Black ones just look good.
