Shimanos with bearing problems? I have Shimano baitcasters 15 years old with original parts and bearings. They cast like the day they came out of the box.

The only bearings I've ever had go bad were in shimano reels.

    Any mechanical part can fail on any branded reel. Bearings are cheap & a easy fix. Never had a bearing fail in 30 years.. I've used Diawa & Shimano.. It does happen, I guess.
