Shimano Ultegra XTE 14000

Ultegra XTE and XSE are based on Shimano ’s best-selling models and are set to redefine the mid-priced Big Pit reel market.

Featuring many of Shimano key long cast technologies, in stylish monochrome bodies, these reels exceed expectations and are set to become best sellers across Europe.

Only Shimano has super slow oscillation , which is reason enough to buy the Ultegra XTE and XSE. But the reels pack an impressive array of top technologies.

These reels will not only allow you to cast further, but they are extremely powerful, will last longer and will look great on any rod you pair them with.

If you are a carp angler and prefer dark “stealth” colours, choose the XTE, if you are a surfcaster or prefer lighter colours, the “silver” XSE will be your choice.

Whatever your choice, you can be sure you've made a great decision.

Hidden within Ultegra's lightweight and stiff CI4+ body is a selection of Shimano 's most advanced technology.

HAGANE Gear and X-SHIP combine with Infinity Drive and Silent Drive to deliver extraordinary smoothness and light rotation.

Don't be fooled, though. Put Ultegra under pressure, and it will deliver all the power you need and more.

And while the internal engineering is a work of art, it's casting performance that you'll buy this reel for.

Super Slow 5 oscillation generates flawless line lay, proven to reduce friction and increase casting potential.

But there are other features that contribute as well. Rigid Cast reduces spool deflection when releasing during a cast, and Parallel Body sends the line at the perfect angle towards the first guide.

And as the line slides over the lip of the aluminum AR-C spool, the casting distances achievable will amaze you.

The result is a perfect machine at such an affordable price.
