Just thought I would say Hi, as this is my first post. Found this site by reading a lot of older reel upgrade threads on Tackle Tour. I am researching to find some better bearings for my Revo Premier Gen 1 baitcasters. Looking to upgrade and see how much difference it would be from stock bearings. Well I see I will have a lot of reading to do here. Thanks, Cadman.

welcome!  for the bearings, clean them out with carb cleaner and lube them up with TSI 321, then fish with them for a while and see if you still want new bearings.  chances are the old ones will be just fine!
