When is Shimano Australia gonna put its big boy pants on and give us reels like Vanquish and Exsense or at least provide parts in Australia for them. We’d love to see some shallow spools available for existing models too
With so many dissimilar metals in the line roller assembly, I wish people would lubricate them more often than not. Ive had to do some horrific things to get some bails apart and order so many parts to rebuild them. A drop of oil every outing people.
For the roller bearing I usually just loosen the screw a few turns and then put a couple of drops of reel oil in there. I then use something like an elastic band to more the roller back and forth to try to work the oil in. Have I been doing more harm than good? Or is it better than doing nothing? Tell me it's better than doing nothing. 😂
Hello, thank you for this video! I have ordered shimano grease dg18, it’s very good for lineroller, but months ago i used penn grease (it’s more sticky, not so good for lineroller), when arrives me dg18, how can i remove the previous penn grease on bearing? Simply with cotton, or immersing in gasoline? Thank you

Is alternative reel lube fine?
