Quantum Code Review
An aggressive new attitude, quick gearing, and an all-metal frame combine to get after big fish like no other baitcaster. Its smooth, balanced performance comes from a premium aluminum frame and gear-side cover, plus a precision 8-bearing system (seven ball bearings plus one roller bearing) that includes legendary ACS II adjustable centrifugal cast control. And if you need to get up close and personal with that bruiser, you’ll find plenty to like about the exclusive Flippin’ Switch.

"I always used Quantums but usually the cheaper ones. I decided to spend a little more and get this one 2 years ago and love it. I also got one for my buddy who wouldn't dare spend more than $20 on a real and he too thinks its great. "

"Only had this reel for about a week now but took it out the day i got it. Took a few mins to get adjusted but not too bad. I have it on a Veritas 6'9" medium heavy. The balance is great and it has a nice low profile."
