🎣 Genesis ONE – Cosmetic Variation (Eco Choice)
The Genesis ONE – Cosmetic Variation is identical in performance to our standard Genesis ONE reel, but features minor paint or finish imperfections. These cosmetic variations do not affect functionality or durability. This reel is part of our commitment to sustainability – instead of discarding reels with visual flaws, we offer them at a reduced price to minimize waste and promote responsible consumption.
✅ Full performance
✅ Full warranty (excluding cosmetic appearance)
♻️ Eco-conscious choice
⚠️ Disclaimer on Cosmetic Imperfections
The determination of what qualifies as a cosmetic imperfection is at the sole discretion of Svivlo. To be classified as an Eco Choice reel, the cosmetic issue must either:
- Be a single visible flaw of notable size, or
- Consist of multiple smaller imperfections located on visible areas of the reel.
These imperfections do not affect the reel’s performance or durability and are clearly disclosed at the time of purchase.

How much 0.4 mm monofilament is needed to back the spool when you want to have 150 m of braided line?
| 150 m Braided Line Diameter (mm) | Monofilament Backing (0.4 mm) in Meters | Monofilament Backing (0.4 mm) in Yards |
| 0.14 | 105 m | 115 yards |
| 0.20 | 85 m | 95 yards |
| 0.205 | 85 m | 90 yards |
| 0.27 | 55 m | 60 yards |
| 0.32 | 25 m | 30 yards |
| 0.36 | 0 m (practically 2 m) | 0 yards (practically 2 yards) |
| 0.40 | N/A (reduce to ~124 m of braid) | N/A |
Note:
- Material Difference: Braided line and monofilament have different densities and packing efficiencies. Braided line is typically more compact due to its weave, while monofilament might pack less densely, especially if it has memory or stiffness. This can reduce the effective capacity slightly (e.g., by 10–20%).
- Safety Margin: Anglers often leave a small gap (1–2 mm from the flange) to prevent overfilling and tangles.
- All numbers are approximate and should not be treated as exact measurements.
