The Albacore "Two Speed" is nothing more than the natural technological evolution of the "One Speed" model from which it has inherited some particularly outstanding details that have never been put to use in any other two speed lever model reel. Take for example the "infinite antireverse" system or the right flange made as a single component through mechanical CNC processing and applied to all models. The system used for engaging the "Two Speed" utilizes a Two-Button gear change unit making gear changes more rapid, simple and intuitive. As with the one speed model is equipped with five protected stainless steel gear wheel and gears and a drag washer made from the latest carbon composite. These characteristics ensure long hours of fighting while mantaining sound braking characteristics and smooth reeling and eliminating the occurrence of stick-slip. All the parts have been machined from a bar of a special aluminium alloy specifically manufactured for marine environments, using CNC working processes and subject to rigorous dimensional checks.

The alutecnos has lower drag spec than other conventional reels of similar class
Can this be explained??
1 Answer
Hi Bradley, According to Alutecnos, due to Alutecnos extremely tight and precise tolerances, the reel has been design with more than sufficient drag to catch most fish by use of the 50W2S model. In reality, the necessity for a higher drag rating for a 50W2S is negated by the existence of the 80lb(44lbs drag) model and the 30W2S Gorilla(50lb drag) model. Please let us know if theres anything else we can assist you with. Tight Lines.
