Shimano Stradic CI4+ 2500 FA Spinning Reel Front Drag

CI4 stands for carbon interfusion with the 4 referring to the number of electrons in the carbon atom. Ultimately, this means CI4 is reinforced carbon fiber. The new CI4+ is the next generation of Shimano's CI4 material and 250% stronger. It is over one and a half times stronger than their normal XT-7 graphite and is over 20% lighter and because it does not contain metal, it is impervious to rust. As a result of its strength and weight, Shimano is able to create an extremely lightweight reel with very precise tolerances.
