Shimano 24 Ultegra 14000 XR XTD Reel

Shimano 24 Ultegra 14000 XR XTD Reel

The Ultegra XR is the flagship of Shimano’s popular Big-Pit Ultegra reel family. Equipped with the latest long-distance casting technology, including Rigid Cast, this super lightweight 14000 Big-Pit reel has been developed for long-range casting. Besides impressive casting features, it also stands out with its high-quality gearing, maintaining smooth operation even under heavy load.

With a sleek design, large spool, compact Ci4+ composite body, and some of Shimano’s best long-distance casting technologies, the Ultegra XR leaves nothing to be desired in terms of equipment.

The reel’s reduced weight allows the rod tip to accelerate more powerfully during the cast, which, combined with Shimano’s other long-distance technologies like Rigid Cast, further optimizes casting distance.

Inside the lightweight Ci4+ G Free body lies a combination of Hagane Gear, X-Ship, Infinity Drive, and Silent Drive, ensuring smooth and powerful rotation even when the gearing is under heavy load during the fight.

Additionally, Shimano’s long-distance technologies like Super Slow 5 Oscillation, Parallel Body, and Rigid Cast increase casting distance and maximize accuracy. To enable consistent performance in all weather conditions, X-Protect technology prevents water ingress into the reel’s moving parts. The Ultegra XR is also equipped with a Hi-Speed Drag brake, which can be engaged with minimal rotation of the drag knob, maintaining control at every moment of the fight.
