BASIC CONCEPT IN DEVELOPMENT:
This high
speed gear system was designed to provide maximum assurance of durability while
you fight with a fish.
Development began
with a simple question:
Can I
increase the gear ratio in the same space without adding more, finer teeth to
resist breakage? And must the outer diameter of the pinion become smaller? This
is the central concept underlying the goals of my new custom system.
Simon says, this is the
conclusion:
“It is not always true
that the number of gear teeth must increase as the gear ratio goes higher. On
the contrary, I can increase the gear ratio by replacing the standard thinking
with fewer, stronger teeth as there are two gears involved there.
Simon says:
I completely stand by
this design! I will replace it if it breaks. Just mail back the odd one.
The pin installed in
the pinion shares the same profile used by ABU. It does not fit miniature ball
bearings with 2.50mm inner diameter. Use my “Smooth Operation Clutch Kit” for
the best fit to your reel.
