Why a knob upgrade for stationary reels makes sense
A new crank knob offers you more grip and control over your spinning reel – especially during long fishing days and tough fights. With ergonomically shaped knobs, you can comfortably operate the reel and minimize the strain on your hand.

Instructions: Does the knob fit your reel?
"I want a knob, but I don't see my role in the compatibility list, what now?"
"Don't worry, that doesn't mean that the knob doesn't fit! You can find out in just a few steps whether the knob fits your fishing reel:"
-
Loosen the knob: Take a closer look at your knob on the fishing reel. Many knobs have a cap that you can either carefully pry out with a screwdriver or pull out with a small needle.
-
Bolt or Rivet?: Under the cap, there is either a bolt or the knob is riveted. If you see a bolt – BRAVO, the knob can be removed! If you don't see a bolt, but a rivet, it is a riveted crank, which occurs in very inexpensive fishing reels and is unfortunately not compatible.
-
Remove knob: Loosen the screw with a screwdriver to remove the knob. Then measure the shaft on which the knob sits. It should not be longer than 27.5 mm and have a diameter of 4 mm.
