I was wondering how well the new foam/integrated floats hold up to the ware and tear from winding your lines up and the general UV sun damage. I heard a few people say that they are a bit of pain to wind up your lines.....? How replaceable are they? Does it mean new bar or are they removable?

i have only used the bar a handful of times, its different having the floats attached to the bar ends and takes a few times to get the knack of winding up the lines but its not crazy weird and and annoying!

i dont think the bar ends are replaceable, they seem pretty sturdy and look like they would last a few seasons no problem.
