Daiwa 23 Steez AII TW Baitcast Reel

The long-awaited second generation Daiwa Steez A is here. Fully armed with Daiwa’s newHyperdrive Designto elevate the strength & performance of the Daiwa Steez even higher. The signature feature of the Dawia Steez A has been further highlighted, a solid aluminium frame now sportingHyper Armed Housingdesign. This provides the rigid platform for perfect gear meshing and strength, whilst maintaining a comfortable weight & size for all day use.The Hyper Tough Digigearis installed in the Daiwa Steez A for the first time, resulting in a more powerful retrieve and reduced winding effort required under heavy loads. Arguably the signature feature of baitcast reels, the spool of the Daiwa Steez A II has also been redeveloped. A new generation 34mm spool made from ultra-lightweight G1 Duralumin now features Mag-Z Boost braking technology, a unique two-stage magnetic brake system which has delivered increased casting distance by returning one stage of the braking system mid-flight, reducing brake pressure from when the spool begins to slow until your lure touches the water. The Daiwa Steez A II is also kitted out with a 90mm swept handle and larger profile handle knobs making it perfectly suited to the rigours of Australian baitcast use straight out of the box.

Features:

• Magsealed Body –Ultimate protection is delivered to the engine room of the reel with a magnetised oil seal located on the main shaft of the reels rotor shutting the door to the elements and unwanted intruders. Dust, water, and salt intrusion into the inner workings of a reel are a thing of the past with MagSeal.
• Hyperdrive Design – Hyperdrive Design consists of four of the key pillars. Hyper Armed Housing, Hyper Tough Clutch, Hyper Double Support & Hyperdrive Digigear.
• Mag-Z Boost –Magforce-Z Boost braking system was specifically designed to give mid-weight lures from 10-30gm additional cast distance.
• Hyperdrive Digigear –Hyperdrive Digigear is the next evolution of baitcast gear design, taking Daiwas Digigear concept delivering a smoother and stronger reeling sensation with a significant 60% improvement to gear durability.
• 90mm BC Handle – The all-rounder of handle lengths is suited to a variety of applications from finesse to mid to heavy-duty angling.
• Alloy Handle – Light, yet strong, and highly corrosion resistant this a handle thats the great all-rounder and suited to most applications.
• Automatic Tournament Drag – Daiwas Automatic Tournament Drag uses an improved drag grease that exhibits a low viscosity at rest, yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start up. This reduces initial drag start-up inertia and combined with the structural changes of the ATD Drag System results in a smoother drag from the initial hook up.
• G1 Spool – Lighter and faster than traditional spools a G1 duralumin spool allows for faster spool start-up and slowdown, and improved rotational balance.
• Magsealed Bearings -MagSeal protection is no longer just for the main shaft and rotor of a reel with MagSealed Ball Bearings providing ultimate protection for the most at risk location such as the engine side plate and line roller.
• T-Wing System –Daiwas revolutionary T-Wing System addresses the issue of traditional line guide/level wind systems constricting line flow by delivering a T-shaped line guide that is larger, wider and less restrictive. TWS allows line to exit freely from the spool with minimal line angle, minimal friction and constriction, thereby reducing line noise and backlash, and delivering more accurate and longer casts.
• Zero Adjuster –Thanks to the revolutionary SV-Concept, it is no longer necessary to adjust the Mechanical Spool Brake Knob when casting. Perfect Zero Adjuster setting is when the spool shaft is held without side to side spool play. Appropriate brake power adjustment is now fully manageable with only the use of the Magnetic dial.
