Daiwa Revros, any good?

[plaztix]

Hi All,

Looking at getting a new 2000 size reel and noticed that the Daiwa Revros are on sale for $125 down from $249.

They are supposed to be a tad better featured than the tierra with digicut gears yada yada.

Anyone have one or know anything about them? Are they any good?

Thanks

Mat

Hi Mat
I bought one of these for my brother (the 3000 size)...very nice little reel, smooth gears and drag. However, while the handle is machined, the sleeve that the handle sits on is only cast metal and is separated from the handle by a washer. Only sounds like a minor thing, but the handle has developed a considerable wobble now. Still, a good-value reel at $125.
Cheers Ian
