I have 2 Shallow Mets I've put ZPI's in. Just as smooth and quiet as stock. Brian.
Did you only replace the spool bearings?
Yes, just the spool bearings. Also, they aren't ZPI's, they're Hedgehog HD's. Brian.
Are you fishing or aimlessly casting around?

Ding, ding! I think HH has the best value to cost ratio right now.
