Re: Stradic FL 5000
You can install them normally by making a modified fork tool that holds the bottom clutch plate in place and you slot it over the pinion carefully and just slide backwards leaving the clutch in place.

Re: Chronarch 100D7 Noise
Used my D7 Chronarch yesterday - paired to a 3-6kg 6'4" - 10lb braid and a 9gr shallow mullet style lure. Absolutely sent that lure without even much of a effort and with wind around - effortless. On retrieve that noise for me seems to be emanating from my non drive side - I've got those cerami...

Re: Chronarch 100D7 Noise
Hmm. I'll have to measure the ID of the lower pinion bearing vs the OD of the pinion lower where it makes contact, see what's the slop. Otherwise if it is that - I'll have to sweat some silver onto the surface as we don't have any available gear sets in Australia and ordering from OS is cost prohibi...

Re: Chronarch 100D7 Noise
Do the video again but put your thumb on the spool with light pressure while winding and go from slow to fast and back to slow again if it makes sense. My D7 also has a weird raspy feeling and noise that I can either put down to the friction access control keyway lock on the left hand side of the sp...

Re: Ultegra 5500 C Clip Question
Try a little grease on the two prongs of the C clip, dry metal on metal makes for hard work.

Re: Preventing Spool Corrosion on Stella Reels
You can treat the line as it goes onto the spool, it'll continue to protect the spool.
You'd just have to wash out the spool every so often and retreat.

Re: Preventing Spool Corrosion on Stella Reels
Some of my saltwater reels especially the higher LB test lines I soak the line with a salt destroying solution like SX50. This far ok.
Otherwise you could try coating the surfaces with a Ceramic polymer paint treatment.

Re: Alternative for Metanium '13 clutch bar
Get some glue and rebuild it - Plexus MA310 has a working capacity to 3000psi and has good elongation to manage stressors. Used some yesterday to glue my old ladies glasses when she took a good fall and snapped the arm clean off the frame, it glued within 10 minutes and took a good flex test multipl...

I'm actually going to sit down and see what's close and what can be modified to work in the Calais in brass.

Re: Spheros SWA 6K Question and Report
Strip down the reel and check the bearing OD and the bearing cup OD - see if there is slop between those two surfaces - if there is either shim the radial surface or bearing retaining fluid.
Do this for the main gear and the pinion bearings.
Just a idea.
