Title: Shimano Calcutta 400 TE gear change
Post by: retiredandfishing on May 04, 2023, 01:37:37 AM
Have a customer who wants me to change the gearing on a Shimano Calcutta 400 TE.  Presently it's 5:0:1.  I think a change to 5.5 to 6 or so would work for him.  Anyone have any data on what gear set I could put in to make the gearing taller?

Thanks, Steve

Did not follow up on this but I'm going to try and call Shimano and see if they would know.  If I get and answer I'll post it here.

Fairly certain they only do 5:1 in that series of reels.

I've never come across a interchange for the 400 te gear set.
