Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
Yes
You read right.
Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D as in Dog.
The lexa is made out of aluminum the curados after the d are graphite, unless I'm incorrect.
Opinions?

Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
Hm I think the curado 200 D has only a graphite side plate on the centrifugal break side, the handle side is def. aluminum.
But I am not sure, 'cause I sold my 200dhsv long time ago.

Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
you must be talking about the sideplates as the frames for both are aluminum. the sideplates on the curado E's were graphite. the lexa 100's gearside sideplate is aluminum, the other side isn't.Shim_Dai_Ano_Wa wrote:The lexa is made out of aluminum the curados after the d are graphite, unless I'm incorrect.

I'm sorry I meant they both are made out of aluminum that's why the comparison.
Was the curado d all aluminum or was one side graphite?
Isn't the curado e all graphite?
Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
Way to early to have a final verdict on the Lexa...if it can prove to be as good a reel as the CU D 200 series, then it will be a huge accomplishment for Daiwa.
Especially at the current Lexa pricing in year 2012 and moving forward.

If that's the case daiwas a winner over the curado e.
Curado d wins because its aluminum but looses on size.
I give my prediction on the shoot out. Daiwa lexa wins over curado d and curado e

Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
The Curado E is a fantastic reel. I bought two when they first came out and they are still performing like new. I haven't had the chance to fish the Lexa yet but it casts very nice and the retrive is very smooth. I'll see how it does in a few weeks, I'm heading to Florida for a month fish with the father in-law.

Lexa 100 has 89mm swept handle.
Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
The Lexa 100 and 300 are the bomb and for less then $150 the 100 series is crazy value, probably the best in it's class. Just picked up a 300HS and LOOOOOVVVVE it, got it for $195 Delivered too, SOO HAPPY
Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
Sometimes we anglers don't know how the manufacture companies think. See and like:
No pinion bearing???
IAR is mostly plastic 2. I don't know how long this parts will last...
For me, the material of the inside parts of the reel are the most important .

Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
As a guy who fishes a lot of salt water, having a plastic bushing for the pinion gear is not neccessarily a bad thing. For me personally, the pinion bearing is the one that I have the hardest time keeping clean and free spinning I do wonder though if the assembly all 1 piece or can you just replace the bushing with a ball bearing?

The curado 200 D is all aluminum and the only all aluminum shimano curado reels
Re: Lexa 100 vs curado 200 D
I will check my 200 DHSV to see if the quick access side plate is graphite/plastic or aluminum?

Here is some additional info on the Curado 200 D ...
