Zillion sv TW 1000
Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
No more protruding mag dial! Not too keen on the thumb rest area with the drop down. Hopefully it is more comfortable than it looks.

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
uh-oh, looks like Daiwa has went down the same path as Shimano, with their take on Micro Module gearing. Lets hope this isn't the case, but it looks and sounds like it. I won't be an early adopter, but the reel is aesthetically pleasing, though somewhat muted with the lack of color.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.
Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
What's the SV Boost? The reel itself looks like it would palm like an old TDZ which is nice...just probably a little lower. Add a silver star, silver SLP knobs and I am good.
Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
Daiwa has had micro module gears with their hyper mesh gears in the Ryogas. Supossedly smoother than a Conquest but the only review I have heard here is that one developed a tick after fighting a barramundi and that his old gen Ryoga gears held up better.hoohoorjoo wrote: ↑Mon Nov 16, 2020 6:39 amuh-oh, looks like Daiwa has went down the same path as Shimano, with their take on Micro Module gearing.

Not sure this reel has hyper mesh. The gears appear to be aluminum which is a little disappointing. What is the verdict on the Steez aluminum gears? Do they hold up and hold their smoothness with use or do they get geary/buzz over time?

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
As a Daiwa man through and through, this is tough to say.
I'm leaning toward a Metanium MGL.
Need to see this in person but not a fan of the frame top shape. As much as I have had great success with Daiwa's aluminum, I'd like to see brass is a Zillion.
Daiwa's handles, specifically the nut and lock plate are not very appealing.

Aluminum gears can suck it! Give me brass you asses! Was that too much?

A newly designed gear system for bait (both shafts) reels that pursues strong and smooth rotation. The module (size) of the gear teeth, which is directly linked to durability, has been improved without reducing the size. DAIWA's unique technology that realizes long-lasting initial smoothness.
Says they didn’t reduce size, maybe all will be well???

If that is accurate, this one will certainly be on my radar.ss30378 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 16, 2020 10:07 amPer translate:hoohoorjoo wrote: ↑Mon Nov 16, 2020 6:39 amuh-oh, looks like Daiwa has went down the same path as Shimano, with their take on Micro Module gearing.

I notice the handle is new. It has beveled edges.

Re: Zillion sv TW 1000
I think this is a very fine looking robocop reel

Asymmetric thumb bar, Magnetic brake under the side plate.
Definetely a Daiwa Curado K
