I've never owned a Baitrunner-type reel. However, I had a friend who was also a good friend to a number of members here. Known to many as "Huff". Let's just say, Huff wasn't known as a guy who took meticulous care of his equipment. His idea of maintenece was a spray of WD-40 once a year. He fished a BTR-6500 for quite a few years, and it was still cranking at the time of Huff's untimely death.
My two cents---if Huff could get 10 years out of a Shimano Baitrunner and never cut the tape holding the darn thing to his rod in all that time, it's a pretty bulletproof reel.
