Pfleuger Supreme XTS 2000

Has anyone got one of these reels I played with one today in my local tackle shop and couldnt fault it Im seriously thinking of buying one tomorrow.
They are very light smooth and the drag seems good.

Looks great, better make sure that its SW safe since the body and rotor are Magnesium. Also, I think the bearings in those are stainless steel. They are pretty resistant to corrosion, but not good as CRBB's or ARB's.

They are asking $299

I have always been a Diawa user and was looking at a luvias but when seeing this reel I am seriously tempted to buy one.
Ive got Airity's as well as a luvias and this sucker feels very good.
I was told they are new in Australia and built in USA so I guess I might just bite the bullet and see how one fishes.
cheers

Gotta be happy with that !!! New reel and landing 2 thumpers, no better way to give the new reel a workout.

How does the reel compare to the Luvi ?? Looks sweet thats for sure.

sorry for the thread dig but I'm after some advice on what size to buy.

I have a Supreme XT 2000s that I bought here in Aus, but I am now looking to import one and overseas they use a different sizing system. There is 9025, 9030, 9035, 9040 and likely others.

Based on weight, the 9035 seems closest to the 2000s but its not exactly the same.

Can anyone please offer suggestions or confirmation that the 9035 is the right size? Reason I'm keen to know is that I'm about to order 3 of these to use on all my light spin rods. That's how much I like my 2000s
