Hard to find Racing Milano for lefty

[lpquick]

I was fortunate to score this recently off Ebay, reel turned out to be in excellent condition. I’m packing it now to send to e_bassfisher, he’s going to tune and polish it, upgrade the drag and swap in 6.8:1 gear set. I might end up mating this with one of the new MB Evolution rods coming hopefully later this month.

Congrat. Probably one of the difficult to find Monoblocks. (and Viola and HG68)

I appreciate all the kind words, the reel shipped today, Have fun Ian!. I have a Racing Condition & the HG68 just couldn’t find a Racing Milano in a lefty until now, it’s not new but it’s about as close as I’ll ever get to one. I can’t wait to get it back from Ian, when it comes to tuning or modifying your top of the line bait casters he’s second to no one. A true MASTER CRAFTSMAN if you have never enjoyed a prized possession tuned by a person capable of getting every last ounce of performance out of your reel you are truly missing the boat, that’s all I can say, thanks e_bassfisher.

How do you keep getting custom color Megatech Livre handles . Everything is absolutely stunning.

Congrats Lon!! I had Ian work up my new LH Racing Milano recently and it's so incredible words can hardly describe it. Enjoy my friend and I can see it pairing beautifully with a new Destroyer Evoluzion Diablo

Good reel, my dad has one of this but sold it away. I've only seen it never touched it. Nicest reel so far.

Thanks for all the kind comments. I’ve been in the market for an I’ze 103L Light with out any luck so far when I came across this gem being sold by a highly regarded and well respected member Gblaze. Thank you George! I just received the reel back from the tuning guru e_bassfisher, amazing work as always Ian.
