Old........is the key word. I think that one was made about 8 years ago and does not compare to the Curado's with more bearings that were made after that.

Yep, that's one of the old ones, a Curado CU-200B, I still have 4 of them. The one shown has a 5:1 gear ratio, mine are 6.2:1. On sale you could pick them up for $99. That was 1995 dollars. I would pass on that 5:1. If you really want one of those old ones, I have one that needs new bearings that you can have. The new ones are much better. My recommendation would be to put 100 with what you were going to pay for that old one and get a new CU- 200E7.
