Check 3:30 of the video he mentions about the top of the frame being extended out.dennis_rf wrote: ↑Fri Dec 27, 2019 11:48 amI think so too. They could make some sort of cutout in the frame but then the dial would have to stay in while the DC unit can be taken off and that would make things even more complicated.
What the reel test guy didn’t point out - the front opening of that new bantam variant cuts way deeper into the frame. So we have a whole new frame coming in? Still DC? I’d prefer a pike-sized bantam

I think it would have to be? Since the frame is solid aluminum I am not sure where else they could put the dial aside from that one removable "sideplate" piece of the frame.

2020 Shimano SLX DC IDC4
Probably out later in 2020.Re: Any 2020 Shimano reel leaks.....
The spool looks like the one on the Scorpion DC. I would assume this is a JDM only reel.poker_lamina wrote: ↑Tue Dec 31, 2019 10:28 pm2020 Shimano SLX DC IDC4

Re: Any 2020 Shimano reel leaks.....
didnt think of a bantam xt. so from the video on youtube that was posted here that reel would more than likely be a bantam variant than the metanium i would think. but not a bantam dc unless they have changed dial locations somehow.
