Maybe they meant there are a total of 13+1 (14) actual ball bearings in total inside all the roller bearings. BTW, the Chinese words in the beginning of your video translates to "New Product."
G'day mate.I just discovered your channel not long ago. I love your honestly and no bullshit reviews.That was FN funny as I didnt get my 13 ball bearings lol.I know you get swamped with people wanting you to review reels I found a well marketed baitcaster that says it some new fandangle thing lol I'll send you a link to check it out.👍
Love it when you expose dishonest marketing. Awesome video. This is another reason I really only love vintage reels that have stood the test of time and whose design, materials and workmanship are magnitudes above this Chinese junk! Love your channel and your frank honesty.
I saw these a while back when I was researching saltists. I passed on it, for some reason I didn't believe in a sub $30 diawa. I did buy 6 saltists tho, couldn't be happier💯
🤣🤣🤣 I enjoyed your reaction to the lack of bearings. I think I would have done the same. I have no time for false advertising and these cheap reels that are everywhere these days. Enjoyed the review. I always check here these days before i purchase any fishing reels to see if they are well designed.
At some point there will be a 40(+1 lol) bearing reel on Amazon. The handle knobs will spin in 12 different directions but the reel itself won't spin at all.
Yep DIWA, SHISHAMO etc etc .... Chinesium - (An element not found on the periodic table. A crappy metal, plastic, or chemical substance made in China in the manufacture of many Chinese exports.) LMAO.... look really close at the name before buying...
the reel looks suspiciously similar to a chinese reel i purchased a few years ago under the name of "yumoshi". claimed to have 12+1 bearings, but it actually really had 4+1in it
I ordered a Daiwa bg advertised on the internet for 65 dollars and got sent some bootleg reel. I didn't even bother trying to get the money back. I just gave it to someone. Never again.
Saw that as well. Luckily the reviews slammed it for being what it actually is. In this day and age the old adage " if it sounds too good to be true... SCREAMS Chineseium ripoff!
Do a tear down on all the cheap brands best fishing reels, people complain about how cheap these products are and how crappy they are but they are always buying the low end reels
Just the name puts me off. What do you think of kalex fishing reel? I picked one up for traveling. They were cheap and the reviews were great on Amazon. I have not used it, but they feel like a solid reel.
Nothing special... I tore one down a few months ago... Not garbage but you're not getting anything special... FYI it's Penn /abus / pure fishing's secret chinesium amazon brand
I once buy 1000 size reel name Teratai.. $10. It say in the box 9 BB... Im curious. I open it up, there only 1 BB on the One way... The other was Plastick ring...

Do they make bootleg Shimano Stradic Ci4+? I see a lot of them listed on AliExpress and they’re $100 off canadian retail. Lots of sellers locally are selling these reels locally for $100 off retail. I’d like to know if they are actually bootlegs or just came out of the same factory

I'm sure they are referring to the Actual amount of Ball Bearings "Literally" as in a Abec 5 single bearing would have 5, but, heck you can't make a bearing with less than 5 round bearings??? I think those Chinese Lost there Marbles ! 😂😂😂😂

Rightfully so... I think this is going to be a "thing" for a very long time... Especially if it seeds in third world countries.... Or areas with exhausted or lacking medical facilities..

I found a Chinese reel called the Kyoto Blade that looked like a bootleg Daiwa BG and I saw it actually has features found on reels on a much higher price point. I took a few pictures of a sample a friend of mine bought (imgur.com/a/tecncFC ), don't know if they're good features for a reel to have that sells for 20 dollars. Sadly I can't seem to find it being sold online that delivers to the US except for Aliexpress and they're out of stock (www.aliexpress.com/item/32946204769.html).

Actually looks fairly similar to the one that came on a 6’6” UglyStik Gx2 I just took apart today.
did you count the individual ball bearings . in the fore bearing races ?

Eff these shit chinesium companies...
I own the domains alibabazon. Com and amazonababa. Com. Not sure what I'm gonna do with it but I got em lol
I have one of those rca TVs, the flyback transformer was shooting out a little jet of flame...
Sounded like you made the lowrider beat on the stem of the reel.
I did...wanted to see if anyone would pick up on that.....and....I did that on a past vid and overlaid the song to it lol
Hi if you don’t mind me asking what is your background with mechanical design? Thanks for the video and exposing fakes.
Yep DIWA, SHISHAMO etc etc ....
Chinesium - (An element not found on the periodic table. A crappy metal, plastic, or chemical substance made in China in the manufacture of many Chinese exports.)
LMAO.... look really close at the name before buying...
Yep, I technically would be a real life wolverine...unfortunately instead of using adamantium, they coated mine with chinesium to save a few bucks.
I could’ve used that high quality aluminum allow stem when I fell on my Epixor today and snapped its stem. 🙃

A nice reel that you should review is the daiwa ninja LT I think you can get it on Amazon
Alvin get pissed if it's not what's in the box!!!, that's on the box.
Maybe Temu will start selling FluGars 🤣
Johnny Morris platinum signature $119.99 at bass pro shop spinning reel 10/1 bearings I took it apart it only had 3-4 😭😭😭
That's strange, usually those will actually have what's advertised.
Am I the only that think he purchased an item labeled “Diwa” not “Daiwa”? I mean it’s name is Diwa. What if it’s a new brand coming out?
Cool video Nick, all those reels with the folding handle are the same they are all junk.
