kingkong85 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Received my lew's bb1 pro series 7.1:1 today. Free Spool test out of the box and a side by side comparison with the Lew's BB1. K2 & G3 Korea? Does anyone know what that means? My guess would be that it is being made in different factories. Quote

kingkong85 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Posted December 19, 2013 Had a chance to look at the reels more. The bb1 and bb1 pro are pretty much identical except for a few things. Difference is handle material, gear ratio, braid ready spool, side plate and external adjustable centrifugal brakes. However, I was able to swap the spool and side plate. BB1 with bb1 pro spool and side plate The side plate didn't fit on smoothly. Had to use a little muscle to get fit and it didn't click once the side plate was on. The brakes and spool work like it should. I might just buy an extra bb1 pro spool (comes assembled with spool shaft, pin, bearing, and brakes) and side plate. Then slap it onto the bb1. BB1 Pro with bb1 spool and side plate This fits perfectly and clicks when I slide on the side plate. The brakes and spool works like it should. Quote
Arv Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 Do you have a Tournament Pro? If so, how would you compare the BB1 Pro to the TP? Thanks! Quote
kingkong85 Posted December 19, 2013 Author Posted December 19, 2013 I don't have a TP. BB1 Pro casting distance video coming soon. Quote
