any one see that at iCAST I Just got the email from Abu about it. Wonder what the prices will be like probably not as bad as the Japanese tackle in my other thread bout JDM stuff. Im thinking my SX could go for that long handle and eva nobs

Posted

I saw it mentioned on tackletour but havent found any real info on it. Do you know if they have more than handles and knobs. Maybe the shallow spool for mgx?

Yea looks nice. Thinking of getting a Revo S, Throwing a longer handle and EVA knobs on it.

I wonder If those handle's can fit some of my older, straight handle Daiwas.

I got the same email. "Finally" we can play! Bet it cost me a fortune in upgrades!! Might need to float a lone!

I have swapped handles between Daiwa and Abu, No issues. Even the nuts fit(same thread).

Not sure of the prices but I will be picking up a few of those handles for sure. I bet they will be half the price of the JDM carbon handles.... I hope.

I hope so to because for the JDM ones for the price of the handle and knobs you could go out and buy 2 Revo S's

I'm sure we'll find them in clearance bins everywhere at some point.

I kind of like the idea of being able to change out handles etc. I think the Revo shop thing might be what other companies start doing also.

I can see people dropping 50 for that handle

but once you have to buy knobs you might aswell buy the hawgtech handle since its roughly the same price, assumingly better quality,extended and not mass produced

yeah I was thinking that to but I like the swept design and I'm not a fan of cork knobs I'll get a Hawgtech for my Citica and get these for my Revo's

Posted

You can change the handle on the older Revos to a swept handle by changing the drag star wheel. I did this to my Premier and it cost about $50 for the star and complete handle.The new handles should be available at the end of Sept and I plan on upgrading a few more reels with the longer handles.

If your cheap like me, You can carefully bend the star drag on the older reels. Use a cresent wrench with a few layers of duct tape stuck to the jaws to avoid scratches.
