[Product Description]
Shimano Vanford VF1000F
CI4+ Body: An advanced version of the original CI4. It uses high-tech carbon material that maintains 2.5 times the rigidity of CI4. While improving lightness and rigidity, the body is further miniaturized and lightweight.
【MGL Rotor】The newly designed MagnumLight Rotor produces unprecedented light rotation. The rotor profile has become asymmetrical. The bail arm mechanism, previously on the same side as the line roller, has been moved to the opposite side. This improves balance, and by optimally placing the lightweight line roller, titanium bail, and rotor thickness, rotational inertia is reduced by 14%, enhancing sensitivity to an unprecedented level.
HAGANE Gear: The HAGANE Gear, with incredible strength and durability, is at the center of the reel. Shimano applies cutting-edge technology to ensure that the smoothness and comfort felt when first using the reel last for a long time. The drive gear teeth are not machined. Instead, they are formed through a special 3D design that calculates the entire surface in detail, utilizing Shimano's cold forging technology.
【MicroModule Gear II】Using Shimano's proprietary manufacturing technology, the latest gear tooth surface design and MicroModule Gear II have been further evolved. The surface of the drive gear and pinion gear is analyzed, and from zero, the design is refined to pursue perfection. This improves the smooth gear feeling and reduces sound.
【Silent Drive】From the basic overall design to the most complex parts of the drive train, including the drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin, and worm gear, all pieces are carefully reviewed. The minimal clearance gaps and wobble are eliminated, achieving the highest permissible tolerances.
