What we really need is a KW-20H. That would be a 20 KW at about 45 mm high. That would immediately become the gathering guide on most (like 90 percent) of all concept builds. think about the onlt real trouble spot in concept builds right now. The KW 20 is too low so you need to go either 30L or 25 in the KW's and these both end up closer to the reel than we might like.. A 45 high 20-KW would be perfect.

Now , that all said , the recent discovery by Fuji that the tilted KW rings actually angle the line flow down towards the blank means that a 25 KW might be OK even though its closer to the reel. this whole tilting of the lineflow do to the tilted KW rings means a lot of gathering guides may be much closer to the reel spool face than has prviously been considered optimal.
