What price were you selling them at?

Are you referring to the new wide spool high capacity bb1? I think it's meant for swimbaits and arigs etc. Holds a crazy amount of line

I personally think the BB-1 (BB1HZ is the 6.4:1 version) is the nicest real out there in a reasonable price range.  I am very curious to the new BB-1 Pro's.  But I just can't see a flaw on the BB-1 besides maybe no external adjustment, which that took care of on the BB-1 Pro.  I sold almost all of my other reels and use BB-1s almost exclusively.  The casting distance in these is far superior to what I was using.  The probability of backlashes is better.  They are super smooth also.  They are, in my mind, just a fantastic reel. 

It's an awesome reel and best bang for the buck. It can cast light lures like senkos flukes up to heavy lures. The reel shines when casting heavy lures (casting distance). Super smooth. A reel that I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Lews reels are probably the best on the market for the money.
