Walked into one of my local tackle stores recently and made some enquiries about Avet reels.
The guy serving me put a Saltiga on the counter and said Avets are too hard to get parts for and that I should consider the Saltiga.
Well, I own 2 Avets and have never had a problem getting parts, not that I have ever needed more than a bearing.
After reading Alan Tani`s last post on Western Angler`s forum about the Saltiga 50 (12 November), I wouldn`t swap my Avet for a Saltiga. Have a read.

If you are looking for another one I have one Lx that i don't use, the other one I use on my beach rod. I agree great reels.
