Alutecnos Albacore Two Speed 50

Description

The Alutecnos Albacore Two Speed 50 is a two-speed lever drag reel that builds on the One Speed model, carrying over several features not previously seen on other two-speed lever drags. These include an infinite anti-reverse system and a right flange machined as a single component through CNC processing. Gear changes are handled by a two-button unit, which makes shifting between speeds quick, simple and intuitive. Like the one speed version, the reel runs on five protected stainless steel bearings with stainless steel gears and a drag washer made from the latest carbon composite. Together these give the reel the durability to handle long fights while keeping braking even and powerful, the retrieve smooth, and stick-slip at bay. All parts are machined from a bar of special aluminium alloy developed for marine environments, using CNC processes and subject to strict dimensional checks. Raw materials and components are selected for quality, and the finished aluminium parts are polished, ultrasonically cleaned, buffed and given gold or silver anodizing. Graphics are stamped on with laser technology, making the design indelible over time. - Five stainless steel shielded bearings - One free wheel bearing - Carbon composite drag - Machined from anti-corodal 6082 aluminium - Fixing elements in Aisi 316 stainless steel - Stainless steel gears - Drive lever with patented no return system - Drag lever with patented cam mechanism - Entirely CNC machined from barstock - Laser printed graphics The reel comes in gold as standard, with silver, a blue and silver combination, and a left hand version also available.
