Hi everyone
I cannot get the drag on the TICA Caiman CA201 to be smooth. I used Cals grease first but it was still jerky. Cleaned it up and regreased. No change. Tried oil. Same thing.
What material were these drag washers made out of? Am I not putting enough grease on? Has me stumped and I'm getting tired of taking it apart :D
G'day Larry,
The Caymans I've serviced didn't have CF drag, but I believe HT-100s fit.
That'd likely solve the problem...
Good luck, Justin
if you measure out the drag washers, we might be able to find you a match here. http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=21.0
Thanks for the replies. Guess I'll be buying myself a micrometer tomorrow and see what comes up.
If someone knows from the list Alan posted I'd appreciate it.
First Tica I've worked on. Great help. Much appreciated.
I've got a set of Carbontex, if you want to call me.
