Shimano Speedmaster XSD Reel
The Speedmaster XSD is a stunning surfcasting reel that offers remarkable value. With gears and long-cast technology taken directly from SHIMANO's class-leading models, the eye-catching silver body and blue spool perfectly complement all SHIMANO long-range surfcasting rods.
The Speedmaster XTD is a stunning carpfishing reel that offers remarkable value. With gears and long-cast technology taken directly from SHIMANO's more expensive, class-leading models, the understated "stealth" finish perfectly complements all Tribal TX Carp rods.
If you want a great combination of value, quality, and performance, you will be immediately drawn to the Speedmaster XTD. Combining the same G Free Body silhouette as many SHIMANO reels with an understated, stealthy look, the Speedmaster is visually stunning. And it doesn't disappoint in use, either. The Speedmaster will not only allow you to cast further, but the new gear layout and technology will provide the strength needed to land the largest specimens with ease. A great choice for anglers of all abilities.
It is truly hard to fault the Speedmaster reels. They have inherited many of the top features used by Shimano's leading Big Pit reels. For example, Super Slow 5 oscillation is used on all reels up to the Power Aero, as are G Free Body, Parallel Body, and cold-forged aluminum AR-C spools. A set of spool capacity reducers is also included to make operation more economical, especially when using thinner mono or braided lines. Regarding retrieval and fighting, the combination of HAGANE Gear and SILENT DRIVE technology optimizes winding efficiency, while the Instant Drag allows for lightning-fast drag tension adjustment. But perhaps the most impressive feature is that, while maintaining the credibility of its more expensive cousins, the Speedmaster offers remarkable value for money.
