that is where i looked, all the reels that use ARBs say so and the Curado information says nothing about them

Re: curado CU100D vs Chronarch MG

i still havent found anywhere that states that the 100D uses ARBs. every other reel that uses them says so in shimanos catalog. and i still thought that ARBs were not sheilded, as the ones in the curado 100D are. i just want to be 100% sure, not trying to argue

Re: curado CU100D vs Chronarch MG

i didnt think that the 100D made use of the ARBs. i thought that was another advantage of the 50MG. the bearings in the curado are not exposed, meaning they arent ARBs right?
