Just in case anyone is wondering, the Daiwa Emcast Advanced folding\wooden handles fit straight on these

All still good with these reels guys?

Not a single issue with them (I have the orignal 8000 version ) They have been faultless

In reply to Post #422
Both types faultless
Originally bought the LC8000 s, used for 6 months ,, then 'aquired ' some 7000 ltd editions too ,, both sets SUPERB for the money ,,,

LC8000s will be for sale as not getting used , will try and do advert / pics later , got 4 of them

Could the wooden handles be available as a kit to convert the original 7000s?

In reply to Post #428
Any idea when they will be hitting the shops?

In reply to Post #428
The baitrunner version is much heavier than the normal one presumably?

Hi,

Weight wise there isn't allot in it...
Will try to get some more details about the separate handle..
Already advised them to sell these separate...would make allot of people happy...:-)
They should hit the shops somewhere during the summer of 2014..
