        Just bushed my match top 2 kits with a 5mm external bush ( tip section removed ) does anybody know what size bush I need to make my power kits the same length(ish) when cut back?cheers.

          5.5mm internal I think and if I was you I’d swap the external on the match kits for internals mate, much better and you want 3.8mm.

            Cheers mate,sorted myself with some off the malman site…

            Anybody had any problems using black hydro through the match 2?those power kits feel horrible can see me having a few spare at this rate.

              Used black hydro in the match kits on my Airity without a problem.
              used up to 0.19mm powerline on this set up.
              Any heavier (daft fishing!!) then I use either a big bore or the horrible CTK kits.
              0.21 on this set up.

              Any heavier then the Gmax Power comes out using 0.25mm silk shock.!! Frightening!!!

                  I did the same mate, sold my power tops and use up to a 16 or 18 – 20 Middy solid, no probs. Short 4 is best though if you’ll be fishing deep and need to land fish on more than the top 3. Broke a few long 4s!

                    Good call about the short 4’s.
                    Only use them for carping, save long 4’s for the canal (if I ever go!!)
