the way I read things, and I may be mistaken, is that reels like these have the drags tested by a machine, and the resultant drag ratings disclosed in marketing.........20kg.....25kg..whatever. This not to say that we (mug holding it!) should use or can handle that rating but really goes to highlight that if the capacity is 25kg then the settings we would use, 12-16kg, for example, are well within the tollerances of the reel........that's the way I read it anyway.......
if Shimano can produce a 610g 10000..........then I'm sold already.........
