Shimano Ultegra XR sits at the very top of the highly popular Ultegra Big Pit/surfcasting series. Packed with the latest long-range casting technology, including Rigid Cast, this incredibly lightweight 14000-size reel is specially designed to maximize rod speed during long casts – while maintaining smooth and stable operation even under heavy load.

With a mid-to-high price tag, you get a lot of reel for your money, and the specifications clearly show that this is a serious long-casting reel. The stylish design is combined with a large spool and a compact CI4+ composite body, along with some of Shimano's most advanced long-casting technologies. When in use, the low weight is clearly noticeable, especially when pushing casting distances to the maximum. The lower weight allows for higher rod speed, which – along with technologies like Rigid Cast – provides consistently longer casts.

Inside the lightweight CI4+ G FREE body is a combination of HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, INFINITY DRIVE, and SILENT DRIVE, which together provide smooth, powerful rotation even under extreme load. Casting performance is further enhanced by technologies such as Super Slow 5 Oscillation, Parallel Body, and Rigid Cast, which together contribute to longer casts and high precision.

To handle all weather conditions, X-Protect technology protects the reel's internal parts from water intrusion, ensuring reliable performance in all situations. The Ultegra XR is also equipped with a Hi-Speed drag that can be adjusted quickly and precisely with minimal turning of the drag knob – providing full control when fighting fish.
