ABU GARCIA Revo Elite 8 IVCB
Overview
The Revo ELITE, which has been completely remodeled as the 4th generation Revo, uses a large-diameter gear made of ultra-super duralumin and an aluminum frame, and although it is a full-size machine with a line capacity of 14lb/100m, it is both robust and lightweight at about 180g.
The ELITE 8, which is used for a lot of casting such as pitching, has an IVCB centrifugal brake system that allows for ON/OFF adjustment of six brake blocks and fine adjustment with a dial, while the ELITE 6/7, which covers a variety of fishing, uses an Infinite Brake System that is suitable for any situation, making it an all-rounder reel equipped with an optimized brake system for each.
A bait reel equipped with a high-power large-diameter gear and a power stack carbon drag that is close to full lock with a drag maximum of 10kg. Suitable for big lakes such as Lake Biwa and the Kasumi water system, as well as salt rockfish. Equipped with an IVCB-6L centrifugal brake that allows fine adjustment and external adjustment.
Durametal Frame
The aluminum frame is designed to be lightweight without compromising strength.
The material is designed for tough use in saltwater.
IVCB-6L Centrifugal Brake System
A brake block locking mechanism has been added to the centrifugal brake system, which can be adjusted from the outside.
The IVCB centrifugal brake system, which has been well-received for its casting distance and cast feel, has evolved even further, making it possible to accommodate the finer details of the rod and the individual casting style of the user.
Power Stack Carbon Matrix Drag
Normally, when there are two drag washers, only two surfaces on one side are effective, but by making the outer diameter of the drag washer uneven, three surfaces are effective, one more than usual.
Not only does it provide maximum drag power, it also provides excellent sliding performance.
D2 Gear Design Large Diameter Extra Super Duralumin Gear
The large diameter gear provides both stable winding speed and power.
In addition, the extra super duralumin is used, making it both lightweight and strong.
Dura Clutch
The operating parts have been thoroughly redesigned to make the clutch easier to disengage and more durable.
Ultra-lightweight φ33mm SLC spool made of super duralumin
The weight of the spool determines the performance of the InfiniSpool Design casting.
The spool has a thin wall design while ensuring a line capacity of 14lb-100m for large fish and 16lb-85m for large fish, and the weight has been thoroughly reduced while analyzing the strength. The synergistic effect with the InfiniBrake provides a different dimension of casting feel and casting performance.
Recessed reel foot
The split reel foot pushes the spool downward, making it possible to achieve a lower profile.
The height from the foot is approximately 40mm. It provides comfortable palming performance.
90mm crank carbon handle + big flat EVA knob
A lightweight, high-power 90mm handle with a large, flat knob made of lightweight, easy-to-grip EVA material.
Interlocking side plates
Interlocking side plates prevent the brakes from falling and getting lost when adjusting the brakes.
C6 Side Plates
The proprietary new material C6 Carbon is an engineering plastic reinforced with carbon fiber, and its rigidity is comparable to that of magnesium.
The use of this material allows for significant weight reduction without sacrificing strength and durability.
Salt Shield TM Pinion Bearing
By adopting a newly developed ball bearing with a water-repellent coating applied to the entire inside and outside, the salt jamming phenomenon that causes abnormal rotation noise has been greatly reduced.
We have succeeded in greatly improving the rotation feel and durability.
We adopted it on the pinion gear part, which is the part of a spinning reel that is most likely to retain salt crystals.
