Fastest gear set for the Pixy and Alphas
Fastest gear set for the Pixy and Alphas
Looking to upgrade my 5.8:1 gear set from an alphas ito and an airy red. I know there is a 6.8:1 gear set from the PX68/SPR, but i'd prefer something faster. Alphas SV has a 7.2:1 set, but are they compatible with the older alphas/pixy models?

The gear sets will retrofit, I’m running the 7’a in an Amber Pixy with no issues

You have the Alphas SV gears? Do you remember if they're made out of aluminium or brass?Bass Junkie wrote: ↑Sat Jun 20, 2020 3:18 pmThe gear sets will retrofit, I’m running the 7’a in an Amber Pixy with no issues

They’re brass, I remember being pleased with that fact when I got them in from TTT. Very smooth and sped the reel way up.

I have a 7.2:1 gear set in an Airy Red. Plus Ian did a few other things to it.

Any idea how much weight the reel gained by using brass?new2BC4bass wrote: ↑Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:27 amI have a 7.2:1 gear set in an Airy Red. Plus Ian did a few other things to it.

0.4 oz.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.
