Six times stronger than a graphite composite frame, the Quantum EXO Series boasts a one-of-a-kind skeletal construction, placing ultra-rigid aluminum in load-bearing areas while eliminating overall weight. Weighing in at a mere 5.9 ounces, the Quantum EXO Casting Reels are among the lightest on the market. The side cover is easily removed, providing direct access to the versatile centrifugal brake system. The EXO also features the exclusive CSC Drag System, utilizing stainless steel, carbon, and ceramic disks for the smoothest drag in any situation. You`ll be amazed by the precision of the EXO Cast Control System and Exoskeletal Super Light Spool, the perfect combination for a long, light cast.
