i got my Revo Premier back in February and was excited to use it. took it out for the first time this past weekend and the stem snapped hooking up to a 3lb bass wasnt to happy to say the least especially since my $250.00 birthday gift is sitting at the bottom of everglades national park. =(

Bought reel new off e-bay second time using reel the stem that connects reel to rod snapped. Brand new 250 dollar reel is now at the bottom of the lake. I have always been a loyal ABU fan and have many revos without any problems. Needless to say I was not pleased with this reel.

Won this reel RPM 30 in silent auction November 2013 got to use it for first time last week at lake Erie and the stem broke on a 4lb small mouth, not what I was expecting. Performance was great until it broke, probably caught about 20 or so before it snapped. I have a sx 30 and never have had an issue with it. I hope they have a fix for this stem problem!!!!!!!!!
