For starters, you don't need to worry about that much fine tuning to get into conventionals. If you start off with an ABU Trophy Striper, probably the best bang for the buck, you get a C3 or C4 (forgot what it's based on) with a slightly higher retrieve ratio, already fitted with the power handle for something like $85. If you are just starting out, you don't need a souped up revolving racer to get your feet wet and worrying about aligning the spools, popping magnets or taking a dremmel to your bearing sleaves. Just get a decent reliable reel like a C3/4 TCST and go fishing... Besides - you are going to get super distance on a reel, period. If you want to drop $130 on a reel - get a Big Game 6500CL
Crawl before you can walk... If you get a hot rod conventional reel all you'll get are faster, nastier backlashes...
