Shimano Calcutta CTE201 Fishing Reel
TE stands for
Total Efficiency, delivered by High Efficiency Gearing and Super Free.
But what it also describes is how well it moves the fish.
Features:
• A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) (all
models execpt 50GT, 51GT, 100GT, 101GT) are specially treated stainless
steel ball bearings that are at least 10 times more corrosion resistant
than standard stainless steel ball bearings.
• Lo-Mass Drilled Spool System (only
models 50GT, 51GT, 100GT, 101GT, and 200GT) reduces the weight of the
spool by drilling, and lowers start-up inertia for more manageable
casts.
• Aluminum Spool
• Super Free (SF) (excluding
models 300, 400, 401, 700) bearing supported pinion gear system
eliminates friction between the pinion gear and spool shaft for
increased freespool.
• Variable Brake System (VBS) uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid in controlling the cast for increased distance and adjustability.
• High Efficiency Gearing (HEG) is
not only the oversized gears, but also includes the setplate and
sideplate, which allow for a high speed retrieve while providing
unbelievable fish-moving torque.
• Super Stopper is a one-way roller bearing that eliminates backplay for solid hooksets.
• Assist Stopper is a back-up anti-reverse system that reduces the stress placed on the one-way roller bearing to increase durability.
• Dartainium Drag material provides a wide range of drag settings and the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.
• Non-Disengaging Levelwind System (only
on models 300, 400, 401, 700) allows the levelwind to track back and
forth during the cast which reduces drastic line angles that cause
unwanted friction and backlashes on wide-spool reels.
• Recessed Reel Foot (excluding model 700) allows the reel to sit closer to the rod for comfort and maneuverability.
• Easy Access Sideplate by
using a single thumb screw, the angler can open the sideplate and
adjust the VBS without having to remove the spool from the reel.
• Manual Return Cluch (CTE700 only)
Drilled Crossbar (only on models 50GT, 51GT, 100GT, 101GT, 200GT) reduces the overall weight of the reel.
• Adjustable Handle Shank (700
size only) allows the angler to use the handle in the short position
for fast retrieves, or the extended position for more cranking power.
• CTE Clicker (only
on models 300, 400, 401, 700) this clicker button is recessed into the
sideplate for comfort, yet still extremely easy to use.
• Metal Series Metal frames keep moving parts in precise alignment for increased efficiency and durability.
• Platinum Service Plan by
submitting your warranty card, you receive coupons for discounted clean
and lubes and priority 48-hour turnaround times from our Satellite
Service Centers!
• Septon Handle Grip (on models 300, 400, 401, 700) this handle grip material is soft to the touch and does not get slippery when wet.
• Rubber Handle Grips (on models 50GT, 51GT, 100GT, 101GT, 200GT, 200) is comfortable and soft to the touch.
• Machined Aluminum Frame
• Stamped Aluminum Handle Side Sideplate
