9 years after its predecessor, the SHIMANO METANIUM DC is reborn as NEO VERSATILE machine. The low-inertia MGL SPOOL III is φ34/19mm, which offers excellent versatility with a good balance of lightness and extension at the startup. The brake is equipped with DC BRAKE that uses a microcomputer to instantly detect changes in spool rotation and adjust the brake force. NEW firmware with excellent long cast and anti-backlash performance. S3D for low vibration and SILENT TUNE maximizes casting performance. Also, the smoothly wound MICROMODULE is solidly supported by X-SHIP, which is covered by a highly rigid CORESOLID BODY. The new model has a lightweight dead weight of 175g, 15g lighter than the previous model. The exterior, finished in a deep black tone with a high quality feel, looks great in the field and heightens the sense of ownership.
