Don't do it. There's nothing wrong with the stainless steel shaft on the old reels. WTF would you want to spend 200 beans for titanium and a drag you can't service or replace yourself, plus a new spool? Bad enough to have gears you can't get to easily.

I paid around 400 clams for each of mine. I should spend half again that much on each for a very dubious "upgrade"? No thanks
