Quantum Exo Opinions

Featured Replies

Does anyone have any opinions on the quantum exo 100s? I got one coming in tomorrow and id like to see what you guys think of them after using them.

I dislike Quantum's ACS but I like the aesthetics and the ergonomics.

Have the EXO, and like them.  Very light and comfortable to fish with.  Have the high speed model and use for jig fishing.  I have no complaints about the reel or the ACS system on the reel either.

I've had one for two seasons now. I love that it's light as a feather, and it palms well. It seems to be a bit noisy on the cast, but still casts very well. I'm thinking you'll like it. 

If you dont like it, let me know.  We can work something out.

 

I like the reels, light, strong and casts A MILE!  The spool seems to really run free so, be aware of that early on.

 

I think you will be happy, great ergonomics on that reel.  I have big hands and cups into my hand perfectly.

Got my exos in....

Very happy with how light they are. I spooled them up and FINALLY got them tuned in. Took me awhile. Talk about free spooling lol. But ill use them for awhile and give you guys an update. I should be going to the lake sunday so ill be able to post a review. But looks and a few casts in the yard make the reels seem pretty good.

I just bought 2 at 50% off at a local shop. It was a spur of the moment decision. Afterwards I found some negative posts on various forums stating the riveted foot will loosen. Maybe, I don't know. My old Ambassadeur's have a tack welded foot and have lasted decades fighting huge saltwater fish without a problem. Is a tack weld stronger than 2 machined rivets? I think a lot of it is simply brand loyalists who enjoy causing trouble. I got to say my arthritic wrist appreciates going to a reel that weighs 6oz. Compared to one that's 13 oz. If it lasts as long as the Quantum spinning reels I've had they will have paid for themselves in enjoyment.
