I have Avet reels that are over 20 years old and they are still fishing.

The Avet bashers have either abused their reels and damaged a pinion bearing, dropped them under heavy drag setting and damaging the pinion bearing or passing on word of mouth misinformation.  If the drag lever is not in freespool and the drag preset knob is adjusted all reels can damage a pinion bearing.
Yup!
