Components and spares
My personal experience with ABU equipment (for the
most part, excepting one broken spool and some level wind parts) is
that rarely does one need to buy spares unless one has abused the
reel or neglected the normal maintenance regimes. My level wind and
pawls last about ten years with a lot of use. I have accidentally
dropped a spool which caused damage.
