Expride 270MH+ or Daiwa Rebellion 701HS?

HI all.

Maybe its my very first post here.
I am Brazilian living in NYC. Just moved to US last year and starting to put myself in some fishing excursion around here.
Happy to be part of the TT community!

I am looking for a Spinning heavy application rod and in my searches I just found this 2:
- Shimano Expride 270MH+
- Daiwa Rebellion 701HS

Spec wise, they are very similar and both sites describe them for similar applications - Spinning for heavy cover and power finesse.

My question goes more for the ones that had the opportunity to feel this 2 rods in hands already.
Which option has more power lift and seems to be stronger?

Thanks

I have the 270mh-2 from the Japan. It is a powerful spinning rod with regular taper. It is an awesome rod for senko and light texas rig around cover.
