Got word about the new revos through a buddy. If they are like he said, they going to be badazz.
That quantum exo surprised me. One amazing reel, that didn't really take off how they wanted.

We will see.

The new revos have been on most tackle sites for preorder for the last two weeks.

This is a little off topic, but I am looking for a couple new reels. I have a few curadas (e series). I am a little hesitent of the G series from what I have read about them. I also have a couple of revos. I really like the reels, but I caught one of Rat Dog's redfish by accident and it stripped one of the reels beyond repair which has me a little concerned about buying several more of these.

I see some people on here talk about the Lew's reels. Don't all of these have both centrifugal and magnetic brakes? I have always heard magnetic brakes and saltwater don't mix. Am i missing something?
