Then again if they are the same and I can get my hands on the $80.00 Chinese version I wouldn't mind that either.

I think it said 80 plus shipping, how much is that? Then if you have a problem could you ship it back?
The Canyon You will have no problem sending or bringing to Don. He fixed my HS 15 even though it was out of warranty, on the spot no charge.

I am all in for the canyon. I am all for a US made product with someone to hand it to or send it to to fix here in the states.
Like I said from the begining I have heard nothing but good about canyon and there warantee.

I do no think these are American made reels. Perhaps the OP can let us know. I am interested in the reel, but would rather not buy Chinese made stuff if possible.

Milhouse I took another look at the post,even thou they look the same weigh the same, I believe the picture of the gears say they are not the same.
China on the left gears all burred
Canyon on the right machined and polished.

My concern is the guts of the Chinese reel is identical to the Canyon reel.
Coincidence?
Who knows but close is one thing, identical is another. Right down to the markings on the inside of the body mold, identical looking parts and shapes, ect.
Again NOT saying anything bad about Canyon, just raises suspicion.
Mabey China makes a low grade version and a high grade version of these reels.

How does the reel seem, well built? I would imagine so being that you bought one.

That's what I plan on doing. Are there any incentives by buying at a show vs. a store? Discount, free line, ect.

It was $110 at the show.

I personally can not see any difference between the two by looking at the photo.
