Shimano 1000 Twinpower 4 sale
Not sure if we can sell stuff here but I'm sure the moderators will delete it if not allowed.
The reel is brand new in box. Best offer over $200 + postage. |

Pukka: Its a very very nice reel but the handle is not interchangeable from left to right and I'm too old to start learning to wind with the left hand.
Richo: I dont know how much they retail for as they are only available in Japan. I got this one through an ebay auction where I have seen them sell for between $145-$170 US plus $15 US postage if you can get them. |

I thought the TP was interchangable as well? Strange... maybe the guy you bought it off fitted a different handle to it before he sold it.
Richo - that reel does look nice doesn't it. Pity about the weight... surely they could try and get it down to around 8 oz or less. I find reels more than that are too heavy on my Heartland so I presume other people must have longer / heavier rods. Either that or unbalanced setups! Chris |

Chris, maybe you need to put in a few hours at the gym. Then you can use all those heavy reels

Richo I have an Epix 20 that I use for salmon and kingy spinning (when I get the chance), the Epix's high speed 6-1 gear ratio is what attracted me the most for this type of spinning.
Recently, however it's been suffering a lot from corrosion and gear/bearing wear, so I think I may be taking someone up on that 5 year warranty thing soon. I actually found the Epix 20 much too big and heavy for bream spinning, but that's just personal preference, I know there are a few people on here who use them a lot and swear by them. I haven't seen the new '15's yet but thanks for the tip, I'll go and have a gander. Pukka |

It's a bugger they're not bringing the Epix 15's in - just have to settle for the Avenger for now. Joe, I haven't had any corrosion probs with my Epix 20 - did you get a dud

Har har jimi.
I'm just an ultralight tackle nut and I hate cumbersome setups especially rods that are heavier than necessary, and reels that are even more so. Mind you when I hook a mulloway I'll sure know about it... Chris |
