Abu Garcia Revo SX Product Review
Design/Specifications:
- 9 + 1 Steel Ball Bearings
- C6 Carbon Sideplates
- Instant Anti-Reverse Feature
The Abu Garcia Revo SX low profile baitcasting reel benefits from the X2 – Craftic alloy frame that provides a very strong but incredibly lightweight frame, that has a rigid base for high drag pressures, and increased corrosion resistance.
With an extended 90 millimeter handle that has oversized PVC knobs which gives the angler more leverage and allows you to fish for longer, and more comfortably throughout the day.
Another great feature of the Abu Garcia Revo SX is Power stack Carbon Matrix Drag System which evens out the pressure across the entire drag range which allows for a very smooth experience, the Revo Sx has a maximum of up to 24lb, enough to tag yourself the big prize-winning fish.
Fitted with the Infini brake system, the Revo SX has a combination of a centrifugal brake that controls the first half of the case and a magnetic brake that controls the second half of the case.
This amazing dual brake system is great because it allows for a wide range of adjustments, which means it can suit any style and is perfect for those who like to switch it up a little.
The Abu Garcia Revo SX features don’t just stop there, the Infini II spool design allows it to handle very extreme loads which is great news for us anglers, it also greatly improves the castability.
Another top feature of the Abu Garcia Revo SX is the DuraClutch design which greatly increases durability.
The DuraClutch also helps to reduce thumb bar resistance when you are casting heavy baits, meaning improved engagement with the turn of the handle.
The Abu Garcia Revo SX also has 9 stainless steel ball bearings and 1 roller ball bearing that allows for a very smooth retrieve and super-smooth castability.
Overall I have got to say the Abu Garcia Revo SX is a pretty amazing baitcasting reel and is definitely worth the money.
