I tell you the problem with these designs of the month like Quatum puts
out... I bought 3 Quatum EX500 many years back and they were pretty
nice reels at the time. I noticed this year that the little magnetic
brakes were getting corroded and decided to replace them. I can not
find the part number available any where on the Internet.


Quantum is good about doing that. I have two quantum reels that they don't
even make parts for anymore....As far as parts for your reel we have a
local tackle store here that might can help....just e-mail
them..www.marksoutdoors.com
