Your get used too the quick drag you really do, the biggest downside of the powers for me is the crap clickers. Poor for a £300 reel.

Does anyone know where I can find the felt washers? Will swap a couple out for some of the carbon ones (not all of them) just enough to slow it down a bit, problem I'm having is I can't find the 5500 ci4 ones I can find the 14000 ones just not the smaller ones anywhere

Had mine since January I can use them just would like to slow them down

I didn't realise that they are just over an hours drive from me. I think I'll be paying them a visit soon to see what deals they can offer on stuff (especially Reels, Bite alarms and possibly a couple of bivvies for me and my boy).

Apologies just seen your referring to the small models. Yes Ryan at future reel servicing is a good shout. What size are they out of interest? Width and hole size also .maybe some daiwa ones would fit and their felt washers are only 35p each direct

Looking at the Fox RX+ 3 rod set but haven't ruled out the Delkim Txi-d's either to be honest. Had the older Fox RX Digital blue set before and never had any problems with them.
