Zziplex will probably be able to do so, at a price.

I'll be selling the reducers that come with my new rods next week, I'm never gonna use them. I'm not sure what diameter they are yet, but if you're interested I'll be selling them for £25 each.

Yeah they're of no use to me whatsoever. I've had the rods built with a fixed reel seat for fixed spool use

Plodding on Mike, getting older and slower. Just check the butt is reinforced to accept a reducer. If not it can be built up with carbon matt (pole repair stuff)

I've seen some rods reinforced with whipping, at the butt where it meets the reducer. That should be a nice cheap way of reinforcing a rod.

Could be that the rod is already reinforced for a reducer and the thread wrap is to prevent fraying. On a really thick walled butt you don`t need anything at all in theory
