Aldebaran MGL

I absolutely love the 50HG, but I always wished there was a faster 50XG. With the 30 MGL update, I'm surprised that the 8:1 ratio is still not available?

This why I don't own one, the IPT is just to low for my use, If there was an XG I would be all over it :D

I had always wondered if the 2016 Aldebaran BFS XG gears would fit into the 2015 Aldebarans. They are the same frame and I think they both have a bearing on the spool shaft so I would think that part of the frame would be the same.

The bearing on the shaft may he a problem. They take different sizes I believe. Dont knownuntil you try i guess

Japan sites are only listing it as standard and hg. It looks like it only lost about 10 yards of line capacity. I'll prob sell one of my ald's soon and pick one up to try.
