Title: Shimano Ocea Jigger V 2500 PG - crank arm cracked towards handle - replacements?
Post by: Jon_Kol on December 13, 2016, 11:29:09 AM
Hi!

Anyone got a good suggestion or two for a replacement crank arm for the reel mentioned in the topic?

I've just serviced this reel, and I suddenly saw a crack there which has obviously been there for some time. However, I'm concerned that this part might give way if the owner fights a bigger fish and puts pressure on the place which has cracked.

If you can suggest a good replacement which will fit this kind of reel, I'd appreciate to hear from you.

Hi Jon,

Trinidad and Torium handle arms in the 16, 20, and 30 would also fit.

I've found cost effective handles from this eBay seller in the past:
