The Ultegra XR sits proudly at the top of Shimano’s most popular Ultegra Big Pit/Surfcasting reel family. Packed with the latest long range casting technology including Rigid Cast, this insanely lightweight 14000 sized reel has been specifically designed to maximise rod speed when long range casting, whilst retaining smoothness under high winding loads. With an upper mid-range price tag you get a lot of reel for your money with the Ultegra XR and one look at the specification tells you this is a serious long distance reel. With understated colours, a large spool, neat compact body made of Ci4+ composite, plus some of Shimano’s top long range casting technology, you’ll certainly not be short of features if you choose the Ultegra XR. In use you’ll appreciate the low weight, especially when pushing your casting range to the limit. The lightness enables you to generate faster rod speeds, which combined with other long range technology including Rigid Cast, leads to consistently longer casts. Inside the lightweight CI4+ G FREE body is a combination of HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, INFINITY DRIVE and SILENT DRIVE which work together to produce smooth, powerful rotation, even under extreme pressure and heavy loads. Long range casting is enhanced with some of Shimano’s leading technology including Super Slow 5 Oscillation, Parallel Body and Rigid Cast which combine to generate increased distance and supreme accuracy. For all-weather protection X-Protect technology prevents water from getting into the moving parts of the reel, ensuring your reel maintains its performance in all conditions. The Ultegra XR is also fitted with a Hi-Speed drag which can be locked and loosened with minimal rotation of the adjustment knob for precise fish-playing control at all times.
