ha beat me by that much!

I had a feel of Troys's So dam nice! youll have a similar setup to me Jason, im getting the Tierra and the rack raider. Probly.

Go to the tackleworld underwood and tingalpa and get a Daiwa Freams Kix instead. Its almost exactly the same in everyway (minus only 1 bearing). And you will save a fair bit.

I bought for my wife and she loves it.

Yes angus, but its not orange is it?!

Go the sol!

[Feral]

Tim, I work in Road construction, I am sure I can find you some orange spray paint!

[Tim a]

I wouldn't say no Feral, orange is my favourite colour.

But getting back to what Angus said, Paintface has the Freams Kix and has had the sol, he said the Freams Kix is better...

[pinkey]

how much is the Freams Kix?

[nuckle]

lol the colour is a big part of it:laugh:

[pcsolutionman]

I have both the kix and the sol, the sol in a 2000 size and the kix in a 2500. IMO the Sol is the far better reel. feels nicer and looks sexy

Sol also comes with a spare spool. The Caldia Kix, Freams Kix and the Advantage all are identical to the Sol other then the colours and a few different mixtures of CRBB and normal ball bearings. The Sol is the go as it's got the best stats (Bearing wise) and comes with a spare spool. Plus, it's freaking orange! Advantage also comes with a spare spool but has one less CRBB and the rrp is only around $10-20 difference.

Angus

P.S. Anyway i think pure silver is sexy anyway.

[nuckle]

its like a car but you pay more for say mattelic paint but does it make the car peform better? No, but you like it a whole lot more

[pinkey]

Yeah Personaly i like blue, thats why im getting the Tierra + im a poor man.

[STU]

mate I got both and they are both sweet the tierra is what I had first and I still like using it alot

[pinkey]

ok sweet, should be here early next week, if its not im gonna explode, i payed for it on ebay on the 15th of december, lousy seller, but if its a real brand new tierra ill be a happy man cos i got it for $157 AU incld postage.

At least you won one bacj in the classic

[namyau]

the freams kix is a pretty decent reel - i havent used a sol but played with one and i cant really feel any difference - ive actually modded my freams with a rcs cork knob,rcs bearing drag upgrade and upgraded the bearing on the bail arm

[Wookie]

Hi nuckle i have two soon to be three they rage from $290.00-$300.00 i bought my reels from Fish Head.
