Shimano Curado 200K is available for preorder now
Re: Shimano Curado 200K is available for preorder now
looks nice to me. link indicates smaller profile, microgears, longer handles vs. I
I think this all comes down to the brake system reviews to me but honestly don't know that I have a place for a 7.5oz reel. Too many 6oz high end reels in my locker.

The matte black matches the matte GLX quite well.

Shimano certainly made big changes to the clutch bar.

And how hard to touch up... Gloss colours can be near enough close enough, but matt finishes are next to impossible...Bootytrain wrote:Easier to scratch thoughjohnD wrote:matte black is ok , at lease it won't be a finger print magnet.
For the sake of technology placement, a valued and necessary gear ratio has been left out. I can see people looking for gear sets to fit already... Wonder if the I platform can donate a set of PG gears?godshippy wrote:I noticed that too...how bizarre not to have a cranking model...but maybe soon to be released?pharmboy2010 wrote:No 5.x geared model?

Re: Shimano Curado 200K is available for preorder now
I was icast today..without a doubt this reel is gonna be a hit , nothing like the I series. Just a smooth as their high end baitcasters.
The worm gear is black like on the curado 70.

Awesome pic, I wish I could have went
I will defiantly be ordering one, I just hope they come out with a 5: gear ratio for cranking, but if not I will still get one.
This will be a damn sweet reel to upgrade looks....some HH bearings, a shallow yumeya spool with a HH carbon fiber handle
and some cork knobs

They might...but likely will only provide the cranking option in right handed....which they have done since the D line. (DPV)BRONZEBACK32 wrote:Awesome pic, I wish I could have went

Ah, I didn't even think about that, maybe they will do it for lefties only this timeSteveSchmelzle wrote:They might...but likely will only provide the cranking option in right handed....which they have done since the D line. (DPV)BRONZEBACK32 wrote:Awesome pic, I wish I could have went
