Avet is not a reel you can neglect.

I always wash mine off with the water. Seems to be better than not do it. I had 3 out of 4 stop on me after 3 days in Baja without rinsing.

True for servicing them. It is really easy, once you do it a few times.
Avets are great reals when you learn how to take care of them.

The biggest thing people screw up on Avets are those tiny washers. You know, lil' ones that are curved.

You put 'em () ().

or (()).

You do ((((, and you're hosed. Lever won't engage.

Been there.
