Please note warranty service for JDM models is typically handled via Shimano Japan, which may involve return shipping from overseas. ● Why this one ⚙️ INFINITY XROSS — gears that refuse to wear The gear-tooth geometry was redesigned to spread load across a wider contact surface, roughly doubling gear durability over the previous generation. Combined with HAGANE cold-forged gearing, this is the technology Shimano's flagship Stella reels pioneered — now inherited by the mid-range. 💪 INFINITY DRIVE under load When a 3 kg fish is bending the rod, cheap reels turn to mush. Infinity Drive's dual-bearing pinion support keeps the gear mesh aligned, so the handle stays smooth and powerful at the exact moment it matters most. 🌀 ANTITWIST FIN + DURACROSS drag The fin on the line roller intercepts line twist before it reaches the spool — fewer wind-knots, cleaner casts. The Duracross drag washers use a long-fiber material with up to 10× the wear life of conventional felt, so the drag feels the same on cast 500 as on cast 1. 🌊 X-PROTECT — saltwater, day after day A labyrinth structure combined with water-repellent treatment seals the critical bearing and line-roller areas against salt intrusion — without adding the rotational drag that contact seals do on smaller reels. Rinse, dry, fish again tomorrow. ⚖️ G-FREE BODY · 185 g The reel's center of gravity sits closer to the rod than in older Stradics, so the whole rig feels lighter and more balanced in the hand — less wrist fatigue on a full day of light-lure casting. 185 grams in a saltwater-rated 2500 is a serious number. 🎣 C2500SXG — the one anglers reach for first Compact C2000 body, 2500-size spool, extra-high gear ratio: ideal for finesse bass, trout, rockfish, light seabass, small tuna on surface irons. 87 cm per crank means you pick up slack instantly on a lure turning toward you. ● Buying from OrigamiSelect 🇯🇵 Sourced in Japan Purchased from authorized Japanese Shimano dealers. 100% genuine JDM — not grey-market, not reconditioned, not the global FM variant. 📦 Brand-new in box Unused in original Shimano packaging with manual and spool band.
