Found a shimano b-100a reel in my dad's garage this weekend. I was just looking for some info on google about it but couldn't find much.

 

Does anyone have any info on this reel? I'd like to know some of the specs and stuff just out of curiousity.

    Well sweet! That's all I needed to know, can't believe it's only got one bearing but then again the spool is plastic....:unsure:

    Back in those days most reels only had one spool supporting bearing. The spool is no plastic but graphite, there´s nothing wrong with it being graphite, besides, you couldn´t ask for better stuff on a 25 dollars reel.
