Entirely designed in Japan with the latest 3D software, it’s packed full of the latest technology, all enclosed in a X-Tra Tough body extremely lightweight but strong at the same time to eliminate any vibration. The LLG gears are fitted on 7 S.S Long Life Japanese ball bearings, combined with 1 Roller Bearing running the one way clutch. The V-Shaped rotor is assisted by the IRSS system to prevent accidental bail closure, whilst the the PowerBail, lighter and stronger than conventional bail arms, helps the overall balance. SX-1 is supplied with two spools, both introducing the new Hybrid concept, engineered in a blend of aluminium and woven carbon to reduce weights without compromise the strength. The spools are supplied in two different versions: the X-Light one is a conventional aluminium-core spool, extremely light and designed to be used with monofilaments, while the Braided Concept Spool features a special core designed to be used in conjunction with braided lines. As on the spools, the same Hybrid Concept has been applied designing the handle, thus to reduce again weight and get the extreme performance. The drag assembly is completely sealed from water any other debris and it works on oversized washers with the addition of a ball bearing to increase the smoothness. A concentrate of cutting edge technology and performance.
