Description
If you're the kind of angler who appreciates an excellent blend of value, quality, and performance, the Speedmaster models will undoubtedly catch your attention. Sporting the same G Free Body design as many of Shimano's top long-range reels, and boasting stylish, understated colors, the Speedmaster not only looks the part but also lives up to expectations when in use. Equipped with exceptional features such as Super Slow 5 Oscillation and Aero Wrap line lay, these reels empower you to maximize your casting technique. Thanks to X-SHIP gearing technology, they remain exceptionally smooth, even when subjected to pressure. They stand as an excellent choice for anglers of all skill levels.
The Speedmaster XTC/XSC offer remarkable value and are the perfect long range reels for anglers who are starting to become serious about carp or surf fishing. Containing features taken directly from the more expensive Shimano models, like Super Slow 5 oscillation, the reels visually match perfectly with the latest trends in their selected disciplines.
It really is difficult to fault the Speedmaster reels. They have inherited many of the top features used by the leading Shimano long range reels. For example Super Slow 5 line oscillation is used on all long range reels right up to the Power Aero price point, as is G Free Body, Parallel Body, and cold forged aluminium AR-C spools. You even get a set of spool reducers in with the reel. When it comes to reeling in fish the X-SHIP technology optimises winding efficiency and the Instant Drag enables super fast adjustment of drag tension to control fish with minimal fuss. All in all, while the Speedmaster offers incredible value, it still upholds the reputation of its pricier counterparts.
Superb looks, terrific performance and a price point which won’t break the bank, what more could you ask for!
Features & Technology:
X SHIP - Provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This increased support allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. X-Ship technology also eliminates the friction between the spool shaft and gear to further benefit anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures.
G FREE BODY - Technology has been developed to shift the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity closer to the angler's hand, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
SA-RB - Bearings are put through the same process as Shimano's A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt of sand inhibiting the rotation of the bearing.
AR-C SPOOL - Features a special spool rings shape. This creates a rectifying effect on the line and realizes both suppression of line trouble and long casting performance.
INSTANT DRAG - Allows the drag setting to be switched from free spool to a 'fight'setting by tightening the INSTANT DRAG level on the front of the spool in only a few turns.
