When you start getting into reels like this one, with higher quality bearings, the braking system isnt always able to keep up with the free-ness (if theres such a word) of those bearings, sometimes making it tough to dial the reel in and get it to cast without fear of backlashing

The larger gears also deliver better feel of the lure and less strain for pulling big baits
