ULTEGRA REEL 14000 XTE

The Ultegra XTE and XSE are based on Shimano’s best-selling models and are set to redefine the mid-priced long-casting reel market. Packing many of Shimano’s key long-casting technologies into sleek monochrome bodies, these reels exceed expectations and are set to become Europe’s best-selling reels. Only Shimano has Super Slow Oscillation, which is reason enough to buy the Ultegra XTE and XSE. But consider all the other technology that these long-casting superstars pack and it’s impossible to ignore them. Not only will these reels allow you to cast further, they’ll help you catch better fish too. If you’re a carp angler and prefer dark colours, go for the XTE, if you’re a surfcaster or prefer lighter colours, the ‘silver’ XSE should be your choice. Whichever you choose, you can be sure you’ve made a great decision. Hidden inside Ultegra’s stiff, lightweight CI4+ body is a selection of Shimano’s most advanced technology. HAGANE Kitchen and X-SHIP combine with Infinity Drive and Silent Drive to deliver surprisingly smooth, light casting. But don’t be fooled. Put Ultegra under pressure and it will produce all the power it needs and more. The Super Slow 5 oscillation creates an incredibly smooth line that has been shown to reduce drag and increase casting potential. But there are other features that contribute too. The stiff cast reduces spool deflection during casting, and the parallel body sends line at the perfect angle to the first guide.
