lt's in the guidelines, l just tried to call recoil but went into voice mail to give recoil a heads up. Go around the site and make some posts, maybe start a topic or two.

I'd love to show off some pictures but it seems that's restricted too. Thanks for your time.

Dang. That’s a letdown.

Looks like reviews will start trickling in. Thought this one was no bs review.

 

No BS? He doesn’t even verify that he has the reel, we see one stock photo….

Interested in the rationale behind getting a 150 vs the 100…. 
 

>3 more IPT on the 100, little bit lighter, so everyone selecting the 150 must be looking at the gear ratio.  Just interested in the thought process here, and what specifically about your fishing makes the lower gear ratio an advantage for a small reel like this

Has anyone had one of these open or seen pics of a tear down yet now that they’ve been out for a little? I just want to see what they did with the rails like mentioned above, is it just a Ti coating? Full rail? If the latter press fitted? Also is the AR and pinion virtually the exact same as the last Gen VSB? Someone open your brand new $900 reel lol

from the schematic :

Also is the AR and pinion ,, the Clutch assembly look similar to the VR, but design to fit into the new VSX2 body.

- the AR bearing is the same size as old VSB.

- the pinion gear and main gear look the same as vsbx from schematic

Can you get a full blow up of the reel and a parts list? l guess part #7 is the quad seal, looks like part #8 spindle housing is longer than the VSX, still, only one bearing and a nylon bushing supporting pinion assembly l don't count the AR bearing as a support bearing.

I took a few months off and I don’t  see one of these reels ripped apart yet. Do I need to buy one?

Hahaha do you need to buy one, save your money. For the price point buy another ZB.  Unless you really want one. Then have at it and tear it down for us.
