Same thing I do don't know that I have had one fail.

All my reels are a combination of Met's,Bantam's, Zillions and one Zillion HD and I personally like them all and have found a rod particular use for each one.

Just ordered a Shimano Exsense xr spinning reel 3 weeks ago came in 4 days with a vision 110 in the box top notch place to deal with.

I have and use both Metaniums and Zillions both are great reels.I also have a Zillion hd and it is a very nice reel but the regular Zillion is better with light stuff in my observation 1/8th ounce and small worm on a regular Zillion is a breeze not so much with the Zillion hd.

Bunch of trash you should just send to me for proper disposal.

All i use can't remember the last time i had a failure.

Correct Daiwa's aluminium gears have been used in steez for yrs with no problems. Have had a jdm Zilllion since they came out and it is just as smooth as the day I got it.I think a lot of the aluminum gear problems where with Shimano's mm aluminum gears.

Ordered 22 Zillion hd from Digitaka Sunday 7/21 delivered Tuesday 7/23 ordered some stuff from another site at the same time just delivered today .

How is that SLP works I almost got one but then decided to just get a 22 Zillion hd

22 zillion tw hd from Digitaka in 2 days must say i'm quiet impressed with reel and shipping.

To me Zillion's are so good it is not necessary to look at much else in the reel category.

22 Bantam is the real deal and i have 4 Metaniums and a Zillion.Good enough that i don't mind the extra weight.

I run my metaniums with 3 brake blocks on and adjust with the dial .Got the new Bantam and have been using it with 3 on 3 off. I highly recommend the new bantam smooth as silk casts great don't even mind the extra weight.

I got a set of gomexus a27 cork knobs a while back and liked them so much i have put them on 3 baitcasters and one on my stradic.

The new ultegras are ci4+ frame and have worm drive

Ultegra is the entry level worm drive.

I agree i bought a couple of glass crankers but bought a couple of fury 705cb rods. casting is just so much better on the dobyns rods plus the parabolic bend is just as good.

I had my 2 curado 150 mgls apart for cleaning and they both have cross carbon drags but hey what do i know.

Amazing that you can get stuff from Japan quicker than anyplace in the US.I ordered a 22 bantam from Japan lure shop on Jan 12 ang got it on the 15th got a vision 110 as a gift can't beat that.

You will love it got a 22 bantam last week and fished a 7 hour tournament Saturday throwed a football jig and didn't want to put it down.

avail microcast spool at japan tackle.

bnt6906 is part number for the curado 150mgl xg handle. It has the chrome endcaps.

As far as parts on Metaniums i have 1 usdm and 3 soon to be 4 jdm metaniums and with the exception of the spool and handle every part is exactly the same.

Been thinking about pulling the trigger on one since it's down to 368 on digitaka is it worth it over a Metanium.

Handle off a Curado 150mgl is perfect match on Met already has chrome endcaps, $23 on fishshop shimano.
