Has anyone tried them?? I believe they are avaible for purchase now. I saw some pictures of them at Icast. They look pretty d**n cool

Available for pre order at TW. Looks like Quantum??

The knobs are exact quantum knobs

Yeah the brake knob and shape look quantum. But the cast control/spool tension knob doesn't nor is the dual breaking system....the one reel looks like pflueger knobs on the handle and the other daiwa.....Looks like they took what they liked from each manufacturer and Frankenstein'd a reel out LOL

They just picked features out of a catalog and ordered them from the manufacturer.

6Seems that even though Boyd got dropped by Abu, he was still a fan of the Gen 3 Revo's gaudy accents. U G L Y reels.

I've held one, they feel all right. Just expensive for an unproven reel.

Looks like they are only available w/right-handed retrieve, boo.

completely agree. Not sure how many people will buy them until they are a proven reel

Especially with the Curado I coming in to such overwhelmingly positive reviews.

I am going to try those new lews reels instead!

Well, I'll be brave and order one. You never know how good something is until you try it. I think they're attractive, and they seem to have some all the standard features of any other high end casting reel. I'll post a review.

I actually think they look great.. There's just enough color variation to balance things out and none of the monotone color of the 13 reels. Doubt ill buy one though.

Thinking about ordering one tonight as well. I hope we don't regret it!

There's very little regret involved when buying fishing stuff

Truer words have never been spoken.

I won't order one, just in case the quality is the same as their rods. Didn't care for them and snapped too many. They are just white Carrot Stix anyways (that came from someone up top.)

I love Lews Reels, but my OCD keeps whispering to me to get one to match the Rod
