FB
The classy new Rarenium CI4+ has a body frame built from Shimano’s exclusive CI4+ composite. This reduces the weight dramatically compared to metal bodied reels, yet still retains the strength and stiffness required to ensure the internal gears retain their integrity when under pressure. The inclusion of a Magnumlite CI4+ rotor not only reduces weight further, it produces an ultra light rotation which improves the winding sensitivity, making the Rarenium CI4+ a superb lure fishing reel.
FA
All models combine Shimano’s exclusive X-Ship gearing with 6 Shielded A-RB bearings. This produces ultra smooth performance combined with maximum winding efficiency. The relatively slow 5.0:1 and 5.2:1 gear ratio delivers excellent torque for anglers fishing for larger species.
Part of the Shimano Lightweight Concept, the new Rarenium CI4+ combines ultra light weight feel with powerful winding performance making it one of the most versatile reels in the Shimano front drag range.
The Stradic CI4+ FA features the very latest lightweight CI4+ body and AR-C lightweight spool producing excellent overall weight saving making this new model perfect for lightweight rods. The ultra light Magnumlite CI4+ rotor gives a super smooth rotation feeling. With X-ship gearing and 6 ball bearings (plus a Shimano roller bearing) the Stradic CI4+ FA generates powerful cranking performance and improved smoothness to cope with even the most demanding situations. An easy to adjust waterproof Rapid Fire drag delivers confident fish-playing performance, even when using light lines. Available in four sizes, the smallest 1000 size also has a ‘Micro Line’ version for ultra light lines and thin diameter braids.
