Noticed on your website that two of the color selections are "Black/silver accents" and "Silver/silver accents".  Do you offer both silver and black carbon-fiber handles?

Like I said, I haven't got my hands on a Lexa yet, but I would bet that we save a lot of weight.  This new handle only weighs 24 grams (assembled, with cork knobs)

 

Send me a note at support@hawgtech.com.  Let me know you're DarrenM from the forum.  Thanks!

Mike, thanks for the info. I might even be willing to part with my Lexa 100 for a short spell if you need to borrow one to "measure" and whatever. :smiley:

 

Need to get permission from the BOSS of the checkbook before I take the plunge, but I'm VERY much ready to upgrade to your swept handle on my Lexa first, then my Chronarch 50e.

Fishwhittler,

 

No, we only carry black carbon fiber.  Black/silver accents means black retainer and silver accent pieces (end caps, spindles, knob carrier). 

 

The heading used to say "retainer color" and now it says "color" so I can see how that might be confusing.  Looks like I need to take a look at that again.

 

Thanks!

Speedbead,

 

We definitely fit the Curado 300/301E and the Cardiff.  We have not yet verified fit on the Lexa, but I am 99% certain we fit it.  If you have a Lexa and would like to verify fit for us, we could probably work out a deal for you on a new swimbait handle...   ;)

 

Have you got your hands on that Lexa yet?

The 94mm handle fits my Lexa 100 so I'd say it'll fit the 300 model also.

I did and it looks very good.

 

I ran into that thing we call "hunting season" and "winter" here in PA :grin: I'll get some pics for you guys. I'll even try and make them "artsy" for ya. ;)

Should I go swept handle or straight? What is lexa100 weight with the 94mm?

The swept handle is lighter and better looking IMO. It looks great on my zillion and would look great on the lexa too.

The 94mm handle assembly with shimano power knobs only weighs a few grams less then the stock lexa 100 handle.

I'm not a fan of the hawgtech cork knobs. They seem very flat and feel funny to me. Your only other option is the shimano knobs. I wish they'd make handles with spindles that accepted daiwa knobs. I'm sure there is a market for it.

I thought that you were using the Shimano knobs cause of how great they are. Sorry! LOL

I like them on my handle for sure. It's way more comfortable then the cork ones.

These are sweet handles for sure!  What a way to bling out your reel!  :)
