The Albacore "Two Speed" is nothing more than the natural
technological evolution of the "One Speed" model from which it has inherited
some particularly outstanding details that have never been put to use in any
other two speed lever model reel. Take for example the " infinite antireverse"
system or the right flange made as a single component through mechanical CNC
processing and applied to all models. The system used for angaging the "Two
Speed" utilizes a Two-Button gear change unit making gear changes more rapid,
simple and intuitive. As with the one speed model is equipped with five
protected stainless steel gear wheel and gears and a drag washer made from the
latest carbon composite. These characteristics ensure long hours of fighting
while mantaining sound braking characteristics and smooth reeling and
eliminating the occurrence of stick-slip. All the parts have been machined from
a bar of a special aluminium alloy specifically manufactured for marine
environments, using CNC working processes and subject to rigorous dimensional
checks. Particular attention is paid to careful selection of raw materials and
components (all of the highest quality) resulting in the manufacture of a
technically perfect product. All the aluminium parts have been carefully
polished, ultrasonically cleaned, buffed and provided with gold anodizing.
Elegant graphics are stamped onto reels using laser technologies and rendering
the design indelible over time. The models in the 30, 50 and 80 lbs. Classes
are available in normal and wide versions.
