I did for a few hours yesterday. Flushing the bearings straight away is always a good idea, as they are always over lubed. I'm thinking of slapping some Boca Orange seals in it as well.

so how did you like it? it's your first shimano right?

 

i think i'll switch my curado to 2 breaks and some spool tension. the flushing and oiling REALLY made a huge difference! also thinking about putting ceramics in mine :-)

I had a few Shimanos when I was younger, but it's my first in probably 20-25 years. I'm used to Revo centrifugal brakes, so using the ones on the Chronarch took a few minutes to find the sweet spot. I have 3 on and less spool tension. At first I had 2 on and just enough tension to eliminate side to side play in the spool and was fine, then I'd get a random back lash. So that's when I went to 3 on. Casts nice for sure. I think the bearing kit for mine is about $30.
