Curado 71 rough knob
Hello, I recently purchased a shimano curado and for some reason one of the knobs feels fluid and frictionless while the other feels rough. I already replaced the knob and the washers inside same result. One shaft for the knobs feels smooth regardless of the knob while the other shaft the knob feels like. Little ticking noise/friction feeling it's hard to describe but noticeable. I've never had my other shimanos do this. Any help is appreciated thanks.

Too many shims on the knob post can cause the issue you are describing.

I was using eddies fast bearings when the noise was happening. Bought shimano handle bearings and replaced them. The noise is gone and my knobs are smooth. Kind of a bummer for 10 dollars for 10 bearings was a deal, but id rather pay for quality lol
