Description

What do you get when you design a reel with five silky-smooth A-RB bearings, a lightweight, diecast one-piece aluminum frame, Super Stopper anti-reverse and Shimano’s VBS braking system? You get a reel you can depend on, day-in and day-out, that will perform beyond your expectations. That’s the Shimano Cardiff Reel.
