My Mood:  Rep Power: 4 | RE: Drag Grease Dynaway, You can try using Cals 2 Speed Drag Grease, its specifically designed for drags. I have used it on my Shimano Dartanium Drags and the Tiburon drags with good results. I think you can get it in Anglers Outfitters, but am not sure of the cost, 'cos a friend got it for me last time. I do not know what type of drag material is used on the Bantam 50, but if they are felt washers, then usually these would use oil as oppodes to grease. Also remember that the amount of grease needed is very, very small, usually something like 2-3 very faint fingerprints worth on the washer. Regards, DFM
