Title: Upgrading handle knobs on Calcutta TE 300
Post by: nelz on June 11, 2017, 03:07:03 PM
I would really like to upgrade the handle knobs on my Calcutta TE 300 with some ball bearings. Although the knobs can be removed with a screwdriver, the bushings are molded as part of the shaft, so they can't be removed. Any suggestions on how to add bearings?

You might check some of these out: http://japantackle.com/tuning-parts/handles-casting-reels/shimano.html

You may have to just replace the handle and knobs...
