Re: Has everyone forgot the Shimano Chronarch is even a thing?

If they would have left the Chronarch name for USDM, and Metanium for JDM, this wouldnt even be a discussion. :doh:

Re: Anymore 50 sized reels?

Still my favorite reels of all time. Damn near got rid of my collection, but my CU50E, that one stays as I could rebuild it 2x, plus build a whole new one with the parts I have.

I hope something worth collecting to commemorate 100 years :)
a new 100 sized Low Profile BC perhaps ?
Bring back the Core 50!
They will just ruin the heritage name like they have done to most of them. Since the Core was the USDM Aldebaran.

Re: 2021 Shimano Reels

Hopefully something with HEG gears in it and get rid of the crappy micros. What reels with micro gears have given you trouble? None, cause I dont own them, other than my CQ100. But that is too new yet, and have only used it a few times. But have changed tons of gear sets on Ks, Aldes, Mets with MM ...

Re: Dream baitcaster

Shimano Curado 50E. Small, built well, great braking system, good drag, holds plenty of line, killer paint job, and a ton of options to mod. Oh, and I have one. :lol:

Re: Kistler Reels

looks identical to the BPS Bionic Plus which is a chineasium SVS brake system Could be. If Kistler produces a schematic then we'll see for sure. BPS shows one for the Bionic. The brake assembly looks way different based on a review photo. Anyway, it seems odd that BPS would allow a potential compet...

Re: For Reel Gurus

15 and 17 Scorpions are based on the "i" series reels by Shimano. The 15 being the regular braking system, and the 17 being the DC (Digital Control) braking system. The 19 is based on the "k" series reels, which is what is currently being produced.
