SHIMANO 22 Metanium Shallow Edition Left

A special model focused on technical fishing. The lightweight all-rounder standard-bearer Metanium is equipped as standard with the Yumeya Shallow Pool, which is gaining support from many anglers. A special model focusing on more technical fishing has been added to the lineup. Adopting aluminum drive gear that is as strong as brass, with a view to short-range battles with shooting objects. Operability and controllability have been improved by reducing the weight by 10g from 20 Metanium. A highly accurate approach is possible not only for long casts but also for short range fishing with many casts. It is one that plays an important role in building a tackle system without gaps in modern bass fishing where the lures used are diversified.

HAGANE
Shimano's design philosophy is to use metal processing technology to create products that can truly be used.
Robust enough to be used safely even in harsh conditions. A precise winding feel and a solid feel that stimulates the senses. And winding power beyond imagination. By stubbornly pursuing reels that anglers can truly use, this activity has created HAGANE gears and HAGANE bodies, which have become Shimano's belief. Everything is for the angler.

Micro module gear
A new drive system in which small precision gears mesh tightly.
Ultra-small precision gears and elaborate body housings realize a "silky" winding feel never experienced before. Compared to conventional gears, the vibration level is less than half (compared to our company), and the increased number of meshing teeth ensures strength that surpasses conventional gears. Shimano's unique gear system combines a smooth feeling with strength.

X-SHIP
Larger diameter drive gear, optimal positioning of both pinion and drive gears, two-point support by pinion gear bearings. These sturdy gear meshing maintains light and smooth reeling that is resistant to loads.

HAGANE BODY
By using lightweight and highly rigid metals such as aluminum and magnesium, the reel's flex, distortion, and twisting are firmly suppressed. It protects the delicate gear meshing and enables smooth reeling.

MAGNUM LIGHT Spool 3
An ultra-thin spool that thoroughly pursues low inertia. It can be aimed at will as if crawling on the water surface.
The first generation Magnum Light Spool has evolved from the second generation Magnum Light Spool to the latest Magnum Light Spool, and the third generation has been born. We have taken on the challenge of making the spool even thinner, and have achieved a lower inertia than ever before without compromising durability. Not only does it have great long-distance casting performance, but it also has a lighter start-up than ever before, a refreshing cast feel that extends endlessly, and a significant improvement in trouble-free performance.

Core Solid Body
A metal one-piece molded body that combines high rigidity and compact size.
The level wind protector and side plate, which are usually made separately from the frame, are molded in one piece from metal. It boasts high rigidity and a compact body size that is easy to berm. The strong body does not make noise even under heavy loads, and is less likely to bend when fighting with large fish or forcibly pulling fish out of cover, achieving a stable winding feel. A new, reliable body structure that allows you to power fight with confidence.

Silent Tune
By applying light pressure to the bearings that hold the spool, vibration during high-speed rotation is reduced. Quietness during casting and the start-up of the spool rotation have been further improved.

SVS ∞ (Infinity)
A wide range of adjustments can be made by adjusting the external dial. The next generation centrifugal brake has evolved even further.
The centrifugal brake SVS∞ (Infinity) combines a light start-up and good extension with cast accuracy that targets the deepest part of the point and long-distance casting performance. It has a wide brake adjustment range and can be used in a wide range of situations by simply adjusting the external dial (when the four internal brake shoes are ON). Furthermore, finer brake adjustment is possible by adjusting the internal brake shoes.
