RCS Handles for Zillions

[spicytuna]

I'm thinking about buying some RCS handles for my Zillions and so I'm wondering what handle size I should choose: 80, 90, or 100 mm. I am assuming the stock Zillion handles are 80 mm (I could be wrong). What are the advantages / disadvantages of the 90 and 100 mm size handles? Do they feel much different and are they more comfortable to use? Approximately how much more line per turn will I get with the longer handles? Any feedback is appreciated.

Your not going to get anymore inches per turn of the handle will a longer handle, that's the gears role. What you could get more cranking power with a longer handle, but I've found you don't get much with the higher gear ratio reels (7.1:1 and over). I've replaced one with a 92 and it feels perfect.

Stock Zillion handles are 90mm.

Yup...and the spool diameter...

A 100mm handle just seems too big to me. A 90mm is good. I also have a 92mm on a Fuego and it feels good, but it is not a swept handle.

The other benefit is weight reduction. A CF handle is lighter than a stock Zillion handle.

Just to add that the RCS handles come with 4 CRBB included accordingly to daiwa site.
cjtoad, can you confirm this?

RCS handle comes with 4 CRBB, ordered a 80MM for my reel recently. It also comes with what you need, the knob plug remover, nut wrench, 2 types of handle nut holder.

Sorry for so many questions but does it comes also with the screws and washers that go between the bearings and the handle?

Yes. It includes the knob screws and the spacers required to make themem fit properly.
Just got an 80mm for my Steez and a 100mm for my Zillion.
The 100mm feels larger than I expected, but should be perfect for my frog combo.
