CI4+ is the biggest breakthrough in composite materials in recent years and it’s all thanks to the engineers in Shimano’s competitive cycling division who were looking decrease the weight of its bicycles without decreasing performance. CI4, followed swiftly by the even lighter CI4+, was the result of this engineering excellence. Shimano’s fishing division quickly realised that this material would also be outstanding in the construction of its world class reels. CI4+ is now Shimano’s go-to material for all its top end reels, where weight and rigidity are two of the most important factors in reel performance.  CI4+ is significantly lighter than metal alternatives but still showcases all the stiffness you require to ensure that the internal gearing on the reel retains integrity under the pressure of a hard fighting fish.
