Shimano Ultegra CI4+ 5500 XTB small Long cast reel with free spool system

The super lightweight longcast machine now from the new CI4 + ultra strong material. Any news you'll find here in our Petrimart Professional Fishing Tackle Shop! The use of CI4+ delivers a substantial weight saving on the compact Ultegra body making rod speed easier to generate when distance casting. To further increase casting performance the Ultegra uses 2 Speed Slow Oscillation line lay and an AR-C spool fitted with Instant Drag for simple, ultra fast adjustment. Cold Forged gearing and X-Ship produce powerful winding performance and 5 Stainless A-RB bearings plus a Shimano Roller bearing deliver supreme smoothness. The 14000 is supplied with 3 line reducers per spool, while the more compact 5500 is supplied with 2 reducers to cover any situation. What is CI4+: CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4. This highly technical material is 2.5 times stiffer than CI4 and is used on many high-end Shimano reels to increase weight savings. Use of CI4+ for the body and rotor also delivers remarkable stiffness for better reel efficiency.
