Just purchased a Revo sx sight unseen, good move or bad? Haha just a spontaneous moment but mainly wanted it for saltwater use.
Any ones experience with this reel would be great
Cheers

Had mine for a couple of years now, gets a fair workout, no dramas.

I've been a Curado man for years, but have recently gone to the Revo SX's - much more bang for buck IMHO, and no dramas to date.
Defineately wouldn't go back to Curado ....

I've had one for about four years, eleven bearings, reasonably smooth, HUGE bang for your buck. My Scorpion is a better reel but it cost a bit more too.

How much to buy in Darwin? I'm pretty disappointed with the Curado
