I think the bantam has two handle lengths. The 6 & 7 gear ratio is a 80 and the 8:1 is 85mm. As for the Core 50mg7 couldn’t tell ya.
I think it is typical Shimano with 84mm handle on non XG version both core, bantam and even your scorpion. I can confirm in a few hours.
The XG has a longer handle and bigger knobs. Does anyone know the logic behind this? Makes no sense to me.
Confirm all are the same 84mm just Bantam got bigger knob.
Thanks James !
The longer handle is for more torque. The extra fast gears don't have much torque so the longer handle gives it more turning power.
I wish shimano would put the longer handles on their low gear ratio reels too.
Also I believe the stock handle on a core 50 is only 80mm long
Bantam 150 and hg have 84mm handle the xg has a 90mm with the bigger knobs. The core 50 is 80mm
Thanks fellas
