Will there ever be a New Metanium DC
Will there ever be a New Metanium DC
Will me ever get a new Met DC? The old one is 8 years old and has pretty outdated technology at this point. I don't understand how it has been so long without a refresh of nay kind.

How much better could it really be, tho? They will use the 2020 platform, same brakes, and put some MGL stickers on the box, hype their spool like its the second coming, but its a DC reel, so no matter what, the spool will be heavy for today standards.
Personally, ever since the new zillion came out, my mets are just meh, and the hype for them died out.

I was surprised we didn't see one this year. My thoughts now are that either 2024 or 2025 will introduce a new Metanium DC. This new model will have ALL the new features, possibly even a frame refresh of the 2020 model (4 years was between last models). Even if they don't change the frame, I would for sure expect Infinity Drive (essentially a tighter fit of the spool/pinion), a clicking drag (hopefully), and maybe some other features I have forgotten. I would almost guarantee one of those two scenarios occur, the 2020 Metanium gets the DC treatment or a 2023-2025 DC model introduces the next generation of Metanium reels.

Still nothing-can't believe they are going to go almost 10 years without refreshing it
