  • Reel seat size please

    Alreet lads. I'm gonna order a new Fuji reel seat for my tippy sport. I think it's a mk1. It's got bronze whipping. What size should I get 24mm or 26?

    Cheers.

          Don't arildite your seat in place. You might want to move it one day. Electricians tape is enough mate
