Quantum Cabo PT Spinning Reels

[JoeP]

Does anyone have a review of these spinning reels after using them this season? How'd they hold up?

I am on my second one. The first replaced under warranty. I know of 3 others returned for $ back. All pt40's

The bail flips incessantly.

This has not happened on my replacment reel, but I also bought a sustain so I havent used it much.

+'s heavy construction/great handle/metal inards/relatively waterproof/smooooth drag

-'s BAIL flipping costs plugs/no extra spool/STUPID useless tool and neobag come with it.
WAAAAY to expensive for what it is.

If they fixed the bail problem I would have no prob. getting another except the $$$

Hope this helps....

Thanks. You are the third who complained of the bail closure. I will avoid these reels.

I got a 50 series for the surf, did not have any problem with it, it got a lot of use and caught a lot of fish, it seems all good for now

problem is with all the 40s.
The 50s and 60s are fine.
