Features
Lightness and high sensitivity created by a hollow structure that changed the standard of sensitivity.
A carbon monocoque grip that created a new history of high-sensitivity rods with an innovative idea of making the rear grip hollow with carbon integral molding. Acquired unprecedented information transmission power, and acquired unprecedented lightness and sensitivity.
A reinforced structure that further suppresses twisting that occurs during casting and fighting. The feature is that the carbon tape is tightened in an X shape from the outermost layer of the spiral X or the carbon sheet vertical and horizontal crossing structure. As a result, the bending of the rod maintains the direction intended by the angler, and the original performance of the blanks is fully demonstrated.
CI4+ is a further evolution of Shimano's original CI4 material reinforced with carbon fiber. It is characterized by being lighter and having higher strength than conventional resin.
