Shimano Ultegra XTD Spod Reel

The main differences between the Ultegra 14000 XTD and Ultegra Spod are:-

- A shallower spool for the reduced line capacity needed, or alternatively use with braid

- A higher gear ratio for quicker retrieve rate

- Three line clips instead of one, for clipping up at different spots

- An exaggerated egg type handle for increased grip

Features include:-

- XT-7 body material

- Four ball bearings plus one roller bearing

- Super slow oscillation for optimum line lay producing extra distance

- Parallel body so that the line avoids 'slapping' the blank, reducing distance

- Cold forged, ARC spool for easy line flow

- Instant drag for quick change between free spool and fighting drag

- Aero Wrap II for optimal oscillaion speeds

- Single machined aluminium handle
