Shimano 17 Soare Ci4+ 500S
The Shimano 17 Soare Ci4+ 500S is Shimano's flagship dedicated ajing series for the Japanese Domestic Market.
The Ci4+ material reduces the overall weight to an incredible 140g, crowning the Soare Ci4+ 500S as Shimano's lightest spinning reel ever, period!
Being a flagship ajing series, the 500S comes with an optimised drag system for fine adjustments and smooth handling. But don't be fooled! This reel can pack a punch and even the 3kg of max drag has been known to land some monsters.
The 500S has 8+1 ball bearings, and comes with a shallow spool.
This reel can be matched with the lightest of ajing rods, weighing anything from 30g to 60g.
