REVO shop question

[dcorp]

Does anyone know if you can put the new Carbon bent handles on Gen2 revos without bent star drags (like a winch)? And if you can't, is there a place to buy bent star drags for revos?

Checking out my STX, if the drag star was straight, it would hit my handle.

Here are schematics here where you can order the part.

Schematics from Abu Garcia to verify. It's #70 for an STX that I have. Not sure what model you have.

Great thanks for the info!

if you're brave, you can use a set of pliers and bend the arms of the star drag back to clear the handle...that's what i did on my daiwa sol when i put a swept handle from a zillion on it. the drag star on the 2G winch looks like it would bend easily.

Lol, I actually thought about doing that but decided I wasnt that brave.

I hear that using a snug fitting socket would do the trick. Just don't put to
Much muscle I to it.

Any of the Bass Pro reels with a clicking swept star will go right on a Gen 2 Revo. Those parts are a little cheaper cost-wise, too.
