As a leading domestic fishing gear enterprise, Guangwei had made efforts on high-end fishing reels in the early days, but with little success, and did not prevent the three giants of fishing reels from dominating the market. At present, Guangwei has reduced the R&D investment and technical research of fishing reels, and is mainly engaged in cost-effective spinning wheels, with prices below 150 yuan, and the market performance is acceptable.
Anglers tend to buy the style with the largest number of ball bearings when choosing a fishing reel to ensure the braking performance of the wheel. But this principle is only applicable to the same brand of products, comparing different brands of wheels can not only talk about the number of bearings, but also consider the material, layout and installation accuracy of the bearings, which are closely related to the manufacturer's R & D and manufacturing strength. Although Guangwei encountered Waterloo on high-end wheels, the quality control of its basic wheels is above the level line, and the GW.HA equipped with only 5 ball bearings can still meet the daily fishing needs.
Guangwei spinning wheels are equipped with engineering plastic bodies as standard, and on the whole, their weight is much lighter than similar products on the market. GW.GB 3000, priced at about 100 yuan, only weighs 250g, while Dijia and Wolf King products of the same level generally exceed 300g, which is slightly inferior to Guangwei in terms of lightweight. The pursuit of lightweight naturally sacrifices some of the rigidity and strength, so Guangwei dust wheels are mainly used for freshwater fishing, and it may be difficult to play a role if they encounter harsh sea fishing environments.
