Shimano Gen X EV A Top Kits
Shimano’s Gen X concept was truly revolutionary for the match fishing community. It introduced three exceptional poles, the Aspire Ultra, the Fireblood, and the Super Ultegra. Each of these three poles had their own specification and benefits, but all showcased a range of features that really set them apart from the rest – not least that their sections could be used interchangeably to create the ideal pole for the specific angling situation. The Gen X concept uses reinforced female joints throughout the range of poles, as well as aero male joints. This gives the sections a unique taper and reduces sticking and premature wear and tear. Overall, this produces an expertly shaped pole that is not only exceptionally long but also extremely stiff and well balanced.
The Gen X concept creates poles that excellent for anglers who target all manner of silver fish. However, where these poles really come into their own is their performance on commercials and they have been designed with UK commercial fishing in mind. The poles, and these top kits, have all been finished with a super slick outer, to ensure silk smooth shipping in both wet and dry conditions.
These top kits are completely compatible with poles across the Gen X range. When Shimano had released poles in the past one of the biggest criticisms the brand faced was that its top kits were too expensive – it was almost cheaper to buy a new pole than spares or top kits! With the Gen X range Shimano spent three years in product development to ensure that its top kits and spares were reasonably priced and a viable option for the passionate competition angler. As a result, this Gen X EV A Top Kit offer outstanding value for money.
Both a number four section and a number two cup section are available in this Gen X EV A Top Kit range.
