The thing no one is talking about is the sound they make. I have tried them on two reels, Nasci 2025 and Miravel. The thing is, yes they are smooth (so is the original bushing solution), but, compared to the original rollers with metal bushing they are louder, there is a light noise coming from line roller after i "upgrade" it. With the original metal bushing line roller there is absolute silence when you reel in. It bothered me so i went back to original line rollers. Thoughts ?

Did you lubricate the new roller? I’d assume they ship dry and dry bearings can be pretty loud
Did you use any lubrication? Light oil on the bearing and grease inside the housing? I have seven of these line rollers and none make any sound whatsoever.
If you check the Gomexus installation they said a thing layer of grease needs to be applied to the line roller, please update us as I also want to upgrade my line roller
