I was always put off the Avets by the gorilla detents at the freespool lever position and the seeming on/off nature of the drag.

The ones at the Ho Show seemed much more civilized. Has Avet fiddled with the detents & cam profiles?

Do Avets have the Bellevilles on the spool spindles like other lever drags. Avet's big deal was always the powerful drags. Maybe every other Avet I handled was set up for MAX drag?
