I sent my reel to RE for service. Got a call from Pat the day after I sent it out to let me know that they received it and what he thought was the issue with the spool cup. He replaced the sleeve guide and body bushing and the reel is mint again. No charge as it was all warranty. Turnaround time was about a week. Great customer service by the way!
I talked to the VS rep at the RISSA show yesterday and he tells me that the spool cup wobble was most likely there from the beginning and as the reel broke in, it became more noticable.
He said is was definite not related a premature ware issue, caused from fishing heavy jigs but was a manufacturing issue that has been corrected and should not happen again. The new parts are under warranty and if the issue happens again, the parts will be replaced under warranty again.
Looked at the ZBs at the show. Look awesome. How does that drag under the spool cup hold up after swimming it for a season. Didn't look sealed to me?
