Shimano Ultegra

SHIMANO ULTEGRA FC

The new ULTEGRA is the ultimate evolution of one of Shimano's most popular mid-priced reels. Containing many of the latest technical features found on top-of-the-range SHIMANO reels like Stella, at a price that defies reality, the new ULTEGRA range offers remarkable value. The combination of HAGANE Gear, MicroModule II, X-Ship, and Silent Drive ensures the very best winding performance, even under pressure, with remarkable smoothness that enhances the fishing experience. X-Protect technology prevents water from getting into the moving parts of the line roller and roller clutch, extending longevity and delivering failsafe performance. For distance casting, the Long Stroke Spool design and AR-C Spool enables the line to flow more freely during the cast and the addition of a CI4+ Body reduces overall weight for less fatigue when fishing for extended periods.

FEATURES

• Its very strong and durable HAGANE main gear is produced with Shimano’s unique cold forging process.
• The New MICRO MODULE GEAR II and SILENT DRIVE ensure an overall smooth operation of the reel, even under high pressure or load.
• The LONG STROKE SPOOL adds casting distance and accuracy by application of a longer spool stroke compared to regular reel spools.
• The X Protect feature provides excellent water resistance without creating a heavy rotation feeling.
• The new Ultegra also features G Free Body technology to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
• The stiff but lightweight CI4+ body is the perfect protection and support for the HAGANE gear, X-Ship system, and shielded A-RB bearings to work to their maximum effect and efficiency.
