Re: A few questions for Abu guru's ( round reels )

Where is everybody? The forum seems very slow for some reason. I know there is someone who has made the spool swap, I remember it before the forum crash.

Re: Can I add bearings to the curado knobs

I would sure love to have 8 of them if it were at all possible :(
Are you sure you couldn't distract the guy that puts the knobs on the reels by pulling the fire alarm and swipe a few for me :)

Re: Can I add bearings to the curado knobs

I guess I should add that I'm reffering to the 200 e7's
I know that the 50's will accept one but they use a regular screw to hold the handle on.

Thanks!

also what size are the bearings and how much are they each?

I see that the one on my calcutta te would work BUT, it has regular threads, the curado's have left hand threads. Do they make the nut I need to hold the handle on that will allow the bearing to be added and ...
