Shimano - Miravel Spinning Reel

The newest addition to Shimano's MagnumLite series of spinning reels, Miravel is a lightweight yet powerful reel with fierce versatility for the multi-species angler.

Built utilizing Shimano's legendary carbon-infused CI4+ body to provide a lightweight platform and increased sensitivity, the Miravel also features Shimano's MagnumLite rotor to allow for an effortless startup and quick hooksets. Sporting a trifecta of Shimano premium reel technologies — cold-forged HAGANE Gear, SilentDrive and X-Ship — provides durable gearing with tighter tolerances for smoother reeling performance.

Fish confidently with Miravel in hand, the newest member of the MagnumLite series is ready for the challenge.

Features:

• MagnumLite Rotor - MagnumLite rotor technology leverages Shimano’s proprietary carbon-infused CI4+ material to reduce overall rotor weight compared to standard rotor construction without sacrificing overall strength and durability. The MagnumLite Rotor enhances performance by reducing the initial startup inertia, providing effortless handle rotation for quick reactions and faster hook sets.
• CI4+ - CI4 is a Shimano original material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material and is 2.5x more rigid than its predecessor. While improving lightness and rigidity, reel bodies and rotors built with CI4+ are further reduced in size and weight.
• Cross Carbon Drag (C5000) - The Cross Carbon Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials. The Cross Carbon Drag provides the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability.
• CoreProtect - Shimano developed CoreProtect to prevent water from penetrating the reel. The technology focuses on the Drag Area, Body Area, and Line Roller, and includes surface protection coatings and numerous seals throughout the reel.
• G-Free Body - G-Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel’s center of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity closer to the angler’s hand, the G-Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
• HAGANE Gear - With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the very heart of most Shimano reels. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives anglers the long-lasting smoothness and pleasure that is felt when anglers first use a reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear during fabrication, instead the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by special 3D-design and then formed by Shimano's cold-forging technology. The result is assured resilience. HAGANE Gear is the fruit of Shimano's inexhaustible pursuit for durability — the strength and power of forged metal continues to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.
• Propulsion Line Management System - The most obvious component of the Propulsion Line Management System is the new Propulsion Spool Lip design. Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations, Shimano’s new spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design while also preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming.
• SilentDrive - SilentDrive technology benefits from a total redesign of all functional parts focused on the drive gear, worm shaft and other parts. The goal: remove unnecessary noise and vibration. In doing so, the overall tolerances are improved to a micron level, ultimately creating an overall quieter and smoother reel operation.
• X-Ship - X-Ship provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. The added benefit of X-Ship technology is that friction between the spool shaft and gear are eliminated. This further benefits anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance for lighter lures.
