How to install a Gomexus Power Knob designed for Shimano fishing reels. In this case a Shimano Saragosa 8000 using the 47mm handle which is designed for a direct replacement and simple installation.
Its a great way to bling an awesome reel and make it even better. With a simple installation which only takes a few minutes.
There is a great range of handle upgrades available for all different reels that come in different sizes, colours and styles. If you plan to upgrade the handle or knob of your fishing reel than make sure you do your research and buy the right size handle. There is generally a guide on the gomexus tackle website. These come available in 35mm, 38mm, 41mm, 45mm, 47mm, 75mm and also egi style with double handles which is very cool.

Who would of thought you could replace handles. I never would have thought about it until now. Made a huge difference to the look much nice than original. Thanks for posting. Let's hope the lock down finishes soon.

Thanks Damian, yeah there is a big growing market for handle replacements nowadays. Some pretty cool looking ones too. I was all geared up and ready to go for 4 days of filming starting this Friday which was all cancelled due to new lockdown. Its been a tough few months thats for sure.

Thanks for the video. I bought the Gomexus Black and Gold 45mm for Shimano Spheros 2021 SW6000. It was a perfect size match.

When I bought my Gomexus Power Knob for the Saragosa 5000, the well known online retail site gave instructions about drilling a 3 mm hole, out into a 5 mm hole and cutting, etc. My Gomexus Power Knob fitted perfectly using your simple instructions and I can always replace the original if need be. Thanks for the informative video. Brilliant.

Glad to hear it. Yeah there are 3 ways to install them but this is by far the easiest and avoids any unnecessary drilling

nice job, that knob looks great on that reel. I replaced the knob on my Vanford 2500 with a Gomexus eva metallic red knob and I'm pretty happy with the feel and look, they are very good quality items for a reasonable price. Cheers.

Thanks Daryl, Im curious now to have a look at that one for the Vanford, although i must say the vanford handles are very comfortable.

Key detail to prevent play in the knob is to use the smaller diameter bearing instead of the large diameter one closest to the end of the knob itself.

Nice! It seems that you 've forgot the second washer 😂. Hey mate, I was looking your kayak fishing videos with the orage native, how did you attached the rodholder to the pedal drive? It is just one screw there right?!

Opps LOL my bad. ill have to go back and correct this. Yeah the old Native watercraft slayer had screw holes on the drive system so you could plug in any railblaza device. Either sounder, or rod holder

You can swap the handle from left to right on all fishing reels, just unscrew the handle and swap them around.
