Revo Reels
Scheels is having a clearance sale on Revo Premier reels, but I am confused. They keep telling me the reels they are selling on clearance are new reels that have 5 Swedish bearings plus one roller bearing. They tell me they were only made this year and now the company is doing an upgrade to the drag system. I have check the Abu Garcia website, Cabelas and Bass Pro Shop and I cannot find a Revo Premier Reel with only 5 bearings. Can someone help me out?

The 2009 Revo. The one you're talking about with 6 bearings. (not five, you count the roller bearing)
 The new 2010 Revo.  BB

How much are they selling for Steve? And by the way, welcome to the forum. While I am a Curado fan, I really haven't heard anyone say anything bad about a Revo. If the price was right, I would dive on it.

Sweet deal. I have one and spent a little more than that. It's nice and I haven't had any problems with it. For that price I'd pick another one up if I needed one.

Steve this would be an excellent buy. I got my premier when it went on sale at TW for $140. It is the lightest reel I've ever used and smooth as can be. My only complaint is the drag power, I believe its rated for only 12 lbs. of drag (could be wrong on this?). I know that it is nowhere near the 24 lbs. of drag that the STX has. I use the Premier for jerkbait fishing, though, and tend to keep/like my drag set light anyway, so it's not an issue for me. If I were you I'd buy 4 of them
