Too much for me.
It amazes me though that a bloke who has such a reel, can't spell barbel!!!!!! TT do you think? |

Yes, I saw that Lythe reel a few days ago, too, and thought to myself "Hmm.."
Personally, I think that it is not one of Chris's best: its engineering will be perfect of course, but the design (too many spokes - and rather too thick in the wire at that - giving the reel a rather cluttered, over-fussy, too many bells and whistles, look) ... and the size (3..5in.) ... for barbel...? I'm waiting for a one-off, 2-spool, 4in. Aerial from him ... nineteen months and counting... |

2 3/4 hrs left, I've just spent £195 having the lower pulley replaced on my car so that's me out.
