    A Ming Yang handle,
    on my Christmas Abu, I just put together with parts and pieces.
    It has 5000D gearing and plates, with the direct drive.

    JZ,

    if you get the CL-70 make sure you take the counterweight off and add a heavier one.
    the stock brass one is waaay too light and the reel will engage on the cast!

    I had to do mine or get another handle.I added a steel weigt that I painted and it s nearly perfect balance.
    also,put the handle to the center position!

    I bought a shimano power handle too just to keep a spare.

    cheers

    Thanks, I've had reels like that.
    That Hubilie has that good feature, that I described before, that eliminates the reel engaging, because of an unbalanced handle.

    yeah that is a great idea they have,Omoto will be a great producer with a great rep too.I just wish they had some kind of home base here in the states.

    they make a pretty product,a strong product and very reliable product.what else do ya need.
