Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
Seems like the perfect Texas Rig reel. 8.1 ratio and 32mm "deep" SV spool.
If it is like the Alphas AIR TW...gonna be a great reel.

Looks like I need to buy one of these to add to my ever growing stable of Alphas lol

Was only a matter of time. Kinda wish I would have held off on my CT 70 purchase, but it will be nice to compare.

Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
Don’t remember exactly where I saw it but the spool is 33mm just like the old Alphas.

Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
That's the one I've been waiting on! Gotta have a serious discussion with Santa now.....and if it is, in fact 32mm and the same width as a normal Pixy/old Alphas, then a spare spool will also be coming for my SS Air.
Try not to let your mind wander. It is much too small to be outside unsupervised.

Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
The spool is indeed 32mm. Zero adjustor. Strange looking gear cover for Daiwa, and I'm not sure what the hyper drive gearing is going to be . Wish the T Wing was black, but at least it's not gold. Definitely gonna grab one, though I doubt the performance will be all that different from the CT version. The spools inductor looks a bit on the large side.
Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
I can live with the 32mm spool.
Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
Might be the first reel I have bought in a while depending on price, was gonna be another Steez, new Metanium, or Frankenstein another steez a.
Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
Any word on price yet? I'm thinking this will be of a similar price to the Alphas Air TW and not the Alphas CT. Either way, the Alphas is my favorite platform so I'll probably get it anyway.
Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
I will hold off till I see some honest reviews.
Ct has been such a great performing reel for me that it is hard to imagine this new twing version beating it.

Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
Same here, I love my CTs. One of them has the SV700S spooled with 8lb J-braid, I was out yesterday throwing Z-Vibers for perch. Those baits are sold as 1/16, but weigh out slightly less at 1.6g.

Re: Alphas sv tw with some line capacity
This one is different. Idk if it will be worth selling your CT for it or not but, probably worth getting the TW over the CT as a new purchase
