    Abu Revo x gen 4

    Does anyone have this reel? For the price is it worth the price?

    Its a good contender in the $100 mark. A littke on the heavy side, but its pretty solid over all. I would say you are gonna get the same out of all the $100 mark reels, just find the one that feels most comfortable for you in hand.

    Spot on with this post. Most $100 reels are all pretty close to each other in weight and performance. Just play around with a few and find the ones you like. I don’t like the Revo handles or the pro qualifier grips but love the lews and essentially it’s the same reel.

    Definitely one of the best $100 reels out there. TackleTour had favorable things to say about them. I've got two X's and really like them, very smooth, and solid.

    you can get them on ebay right now for 59.99, so I was thinking about getting a couple.

    At that price I wouldn't think twice.

    Both great reels. IMO. Honestly, its hard pressed in the $100 mark. Fuego, X, SLX, Speed Spool, they are all great. Its best to know what braking profile you are more accustomed to, and what feels good in hand. All are about the same build quality, plus or minus. And yes, Ive been through them all. Lol.

    You can get the Gen4 STX for 113.00 from EBay or other places.

    I love the Revo X. They are all I use now and have not had an issue. Plus the eBay deals are just too good.

    Bought my son two for Christmas. He loves them. Tackle Tour gave them high marks.
