Replacing Curado 71 XG handle

[KY Bassin]

So part of my handle got bent up on my Curado 71XG and I went on to the Shimano website to order a new handle but they don’t have this model of Curado listed to select parts from. Is it possible that the body and parts are the same as another Curado model? Or Can I order a handle from another model and that would work?

 

thanks.

Call them tomorrow (877-577-0600). They're PST so call later.  Just  order the handle shank not the whole assembly. It's BNT 5090.  Found it on my Aldebaran schem.  Same as CU71.

Okay thank you very much!

Or if you want a longer handle you can order one from a Chronarch MGL or the Met XG ratio reel.

Can you pretty much put any Shimano baitcaster handle on it?

I changed all 4 of my curado 70 XG's to the curado / citica septon handles.....i like the bigger grips

Which Curado model handle did you order?
