Who had the best price on the orange seal? Also, is there is difference in size between the Curado and Citica series 200 bearings?

Thanks,

VC

I know on the E series they are the same size.

I prefer the bearings that Dawn carries at Smooth Drags. Less expensive, they have metal shields, and as fast as OS, if not faster.

Delaware Valley Tackle would that be per bearing price or the pair? do you carry beariings for a Daiwa Laguna? im looking into making my reel better without breaking the bank or buying another one. thanks.

The Stainless Steel bearings are a VERY good replacement for shot OEM bearings. Much more affordable, too. If you want some extra performance, and have the ability to use the speed, the ABEC 7 Ceramic Hybrids are excellent. I have them in two TD-Sols and a a JDM Alphas. I do think I get longer casts with crankbaits, and the Alphas is set up on a ML/XF light jig and worm rod. Start up and pitching light jigs and plastics is very good, so long as you use a light oil, like Met-ol or Yellow Rocket Fuel. Just remember, light oil means more maintenance. Everything comes with a price.

The ABEC 5 metal shield Ceramic Hybrids they have are nice too and not much more than the SS bearings.

I ordered some directly from BOCA during their Black friday sale last year 50% off. I bought 8 sets. Of course, my credit card # was also compromised by them too but that's another story....
