KTF 16 Aldebaran BFS XG spools are back in stock @ Karil

Post by Schlag » Fri Sep 22, 2017 8:04 am

Been wanting one of these spools for a long time, and didn't want to pay a crazy auction price on Buyee. Every time I've visited Karil's website, the 16 Aldebaran BFS spools have been out of stock. Currently, they have the blue & purple spools available. I just sent a paypal payment for a purple spool. \:D/

FYI to anyone who's been wanting one.

Im happy to hear a couple other colors are back in stock.

I have a new 16BFS gold spool I was meaning to sell, but never got around to it.

I don't see why not, as long as we're talking about the 2016/2017 Aldebaran BFS models. The only difference is the gear ratio.

The 15 Aldebaran and 16 Aldebaran BFS do not share the same sized spool.

Click on overseas shipping link. Then click "how to use our shopping cart." Follow their directions. It's best to turn off the webpage translation while checking out and have their shopping cart instructions open on a separate tab/page. Hope this helps.

Im no expert on Shimano reels, but I believe they also dont share the same braking system; 2016 models having the ftb (finesse tune brake) magnetic.
