Hey guys I just wanted to see if I could get a little help with my revo premier. I just recently got this reel 3 weeks ago and got to use it last week in Georgia while in the road.  Have to say this reel brought in a few really nice pond fish that put up some of the best fighting I've ever gotten from a bass and this reel performed fantastically. I really like that I never have to worry about a backlash when casting against the wind and can still get really far distance, however I did have a big issue where on a cast the reel out of no where backlashed  and broke every plastic piece on the spool breaks (4 break arms?). I've contacted abu and they want me to send the reel in which I'm going to do because the reel Is new and they will fix the reel properly but for the future I would like to get some of these plastic pieces to have incase this happens again. But I cannot find these parts anywhere and don't know if u must buy a complete spool or not. In the case of buying a complete spool is there a lighter spool i should look into? The reel cast very controlled but not far and that's probably because it's new and not broken in but I have seen lightweight spools for other reels and I'm considering a back up incase I need it but not sure if these come set up with the plastic pieces. Any help would be great. 

I dont know how Abu is but Shimano has a spare set in the box, I'd check and make sure they aren't any you overlooked in the reel box.

You'd have to check a schematic to be sure but think in that design the brakes are integral with the spool. 

How do i check for compatibility between spools?

Part number or trial.

Not sure what u mean by trial but I went to look at abus schematics and they don't even have the right premier. Only the left hands and the old ones. Which is not cool. Basically there's 4 plastic pieces on the spool that broke off. If I could post a picture I would but I can't do that on this sight I guess. 

Meant trial as in trial and error. ABU site seems to need updating. Part # 1252045 is the weights , 1252044 is the arms.

Look up the part number on schematic, and then you can find the replacement parts on ereplacement.com

I'm following this to see the outcome. I've never heard of a breakage like this.

I'm surprised to hear that as those plastic pieces didn't last long. I'm going to get the reel fixed regardless but I may get a spare spool that's set up. I may even look to find one that has those plastic pieces upgraded to something stronger. In the long run I think I'm going to consider a different product alltogether. It sucks to say that but spending $300 on a reel that's broken after a few days of use is not what i imagined. At the least it should of lasted longer then my cheap reels. I have no idea how those plastic pieces could have grenades like they did, the inside of the spool is clean and the side didn't come loose like the tackletour issue had with the mgx. They just somehow broke. At first I thought msybe the sudden stop from a backlash may of broke them but realistically that backlash I had was from those pieces breaking because I never had any backlashes with the reel. A part of me still wants to get that mgxtreme but my brain says don't do it.
