SHIMANO Expride 264UL-2

A wide lineup covers modern fishing. A new high-cost performer who plays a central role in Shimano bass rods.

A high-cost performer who plays a central role in Shimano bass rods has made a renewal debut with an iron wall that covers advanced techniques. An edge-type carbon monocoque grip that combines ease of grip and looks has been newly adopted to achieve even lighter weight and sensitivity. While focusing on the royal road items that are the basis of fishing, we boast a wide lineup that supports modern bass fishing, including those focusing on new trends such as big bait, midst, and power finesse. As the use of bass rods becomes more fragmented and complicated, NEW EXPRIDE clearly reflects individual concepts. As a rod that fills the gaps in the tackle system, and as a rod that explores new fishing, you will surely find the one you want.

264UL-2

VERSATILE Concept
The finesse spinning rod "264UL-2" is a trump card for arriving at the bass with a precise approach that supports various finesse rigs. While clearing the proposition of delicate tips and lightweight blanks as a rod that is responsible for the overall approach of eating, we aimed to expel cast blur. Assists in a pinpoint approach that cannot tolerate mistakes required in severe situations. Although it is a fast taper with high operability, it bends smoothly after hooking, so it guides the bass with wrinkles without making it angry, and leads to landing while preventing mistakes in disintegration and line breaks.

Carbon monocoque grip :

Lightness and high sensitivity created by the hollow structure that changed the standard of sensitivity.

A carbon monocoque grip that has created a new history of high-sensitivity rods with the innovative idea of making the rear grip a hollow structure by integrally molding carbon. We have acquired unprecedented information transmission power, and have achieved unprecedented lightness and sensitivity.

High power X :

Reinforced structure that further suppresses twisting that occurs during casting and fighting. The feature is that the carbon tape is tightened in an X shape from the outermost layer of Spiral X or the carbon sheet vertical and horizontal crossing structure. As a result, the bending of the rod keeps the direction intended by the angler, and the original performance of the blanks is fully exhibited.

CI4 + :

CI4 + is a further evolution of Shimano original material CI4 reinforced with carbon fiber. The feature is that it is lighter and has higher strength than conventional resins.
