Shimano New 13 Biomaster SW

When it comes to strength and lightness, the combination of aluminium and Shimano’s proprietary XT7 material in the new Biomaster SWA series is a winning one. Biomasters are available with a choice of High or Performance Gearing, featuring cold-forged gears, X-Ship, six shielded A-RB bearings and one roller bearing, 11–13 kg of drag power depending on the reel model, plus a one-piece bail and an A-RC spool for resistance-free casting.
