Removal of SVS infinity from 2016 Metanium MGL

Reels are the hottest topic for TackleTour. Everyone wants to know what the latest and greatest is and how they compare to the old guard. What's the best for light stuff, or what's your suggestion for heavy cover. Do we really need different retrieve ratios? It's all in here.

Removal of SVS infinity from 2016 Metanium MGL

Post by Dalleinf » Thu Jan 26, 2017 2:21 am

- I just received one of the new KTF spools for Metanium MGL.
Can I just use an old svs infinity puller to swap the braking system? Any issues?
Thx in advance.

Hmm. Have you tried using the 4-point version om 16Met MGL? Only the 2014/2015 reels with old svs infinity are mentioned.
Thank you.

I have now tried two different 4-point svs removal tools, which do not fit. Has anyone tried to remove svs infinity from the Met MGL ? If so, how?

Thank you very much. I had not seen that webpage.
My japaneese is not fantastic - it seems they suggest two different ways of removing the brake unit. I will give it a try tomorrow. So far my KTF spool has just been collecting dust...
