    I have three 2500FE, Love them, I used stradics before and they are definitely smoother. A very sweet reel for the money if you can't swing a Stella.
    I think you would be well pleased

    you will not really notice x-ship advantages until you put the reel under load.
    That's when you'll really notice the diff in power (torque). Great reel, and the kick stand really works.....after an hour or so you won't even notice, but no more bent bail wires.
