Title: UK Big Pit Reel Service
Post by: gdc23 on June 02, 2018, 10:20:32 PM
Alan I currently own a Shimano Aero Technium Mgs 10000XSB and am thinking of purchasing the Daiwa Basia 45SLD QD. as these reels are not available in the USA I am wondering if you or anyone else in the states offer service on such reels. I would like to have occasional cleaning/lube done and should parts need replacing would they be available.

Thank you
gdc

edumacaded  ;D  guess: Carp specialty tackle...

ask here:  http://www.carpanglersgroup.com/forum/

for a Euro Carper in N. America, no other Forum even comes close to CAG

the free Public Section is a sad remnant of what it once was, but enough to post your question

yeah...  not much talk about DIY reel service on CAG,
but it's the one place you can ask (by far) the most N. American JDM Big Pit owners
where they get reliable (if not, cheap) send-out service
