DAIWA BRADIA 2500

Just got myself a new reel from hotspot today lol it's a great offer lor and i don't want to miss it. I think if i miss it this time very have to come across such a great deal again lol.

Some say the bradia is an lower version of CERTATE 2500R CUSTOM hmmm will i not sure lol but from the look of the Reel Spec both reels are almost the same lor. Is just that Certate 2500R has more bearings than the bradia and bradia come with a folding handle and the reel is in black, hai..... need to spend a bit more money to change the handle and knob to RCS parts if you want to make it look nicer. lol think i will only change them on my next pay day bah.

This coming sunday i'll be going for an local offshore trip hahaha i can try my new toy liao hopefully i can catch something with it.

    You got the blank or rod? i don't think its possible to get at that kinda price bro.

    As for my bradia i changed the knob to the seahawk ones . No upgrade done as i do not have the washer for the line roller so i can't fit in the bearing.

    Yup i'm working in one of the tackle shop in beach rd bro kekeke
