Megabass ito monoblock bespoke topaz

Hello
sorry for my bad english
I was shocked by the stuffing of the reel
the main pair of plastic
why such a big great price?

[diehardbassfishing]

It's not exactly plastic. It's either Nylon or Delrin. Nylon and delrin are very similar. They are very strong, not brittle, and exhibit self lubricating properties. This part of the reel is the Yoke. The elastic property of the nylon/derin yoke are perfect for holding the pinion gear in a near friction less fashion. Also perfect low friction material for cam action during spool clutch engagement/disengagement. And it's light weight. A wonderful material for a yoke.

thank you

Never seen a yoke made out of metal (in a bass reel. maybe it is made out of another material in a SW reel). And why would it be? What would you gain from having this piece made out of, say, titanium? Is your toothbrush made out of metal? No, because it doesn't need to be. Same applies here.

No doubt never ever have seen anything but a plastic yoke, not to say they don't exist and I take my reels apart Like a surgeon. As for the price you gotta pay to play you know what I'm saying if you feels better you can have one of those Abu Garcia freaks custom make you one if you want it metal that bad if you need that kind of Peace of Mind.

Sounds like you're not liking it so I'll go ahead and take that real off your hands

Daiwas used to be made of brass back in the day 2005 may have been the last

It could be made of bubble gum if the pinion is supported well on both sides.
As the only thin it'll do is move the pinion off the spool pin

whats the main gear made out of almite coated aluminum?

[Redlinerobert]

At the prices these reels go for it should be titanium. Or carbon fiber.
