Shimano Chronarch B Series Low Profile Baitcasting Reels
With classic performance and a bold look, the Chronarch B reel is packed with premium features, and is available in three versions for both fresh and saltwater applications.
Features: • A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) 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 reducing the weight of the spool by drilling, lowering start-up inertia for more manageable casts. (available on CH100BPV, CH101BPV, CH100B and CH101B models only) • 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. • Dartainium Drag material provides a wide range of drag settings and the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever. • A7075 Aluminum Spool (on models 100B, 101B, 100BV, 101BPV) A7075 Aluminum is extremely strong, so we can use less material for lighter weight, which helps to achieve more manageable freespool. • A6063 Aluminum Spool (on CH100BSV and CH101BSV only) this aluminum alloy provides extra corrosion resistance versus standard aluminum. • Septon - this handle grip material is soft to the touch and does not get slippery when wet. • Assist Stopper is a back-up anti-reverse system that reduces the stress placed on the one-way roller bearing to increase durability. • Super Stopper is a one-way roller bearing that eliminates backplay for solid hooksets. • Super Free (SF) bearing supported pinion gear system eliminates friction between the pinion gear and spool shaft for increased freespool. • Metal Series metal frames keep moving parts in precise alignment for increased efficiency and durability. • Clicking Drag Adjustment reduces the chance of the drag backing off at light settings while providing the angler a reference point to how much drag they add or reduce by turning the star. • PV Power Paddles - These oversized paddle grips provide extra power and remain comfortable after a full day of deep cranking (BPV models only). • SV Power Paddles - The largest of the paddle grips provides extra fish fighting power when battling feisty inshore species (BSV models only). • Ion Plated Finish - This finish is extremely durable and is more scratch- and corrosion-resistant than paint. • Recessed Reel Foot allows the reel to sit closer to the rod for comfort and maneuverability. • Escape Hatch - Easy to use trigger allows quick access to the VBS weights and keeps the sideplate smooth for comfort when palming the reel. • Variable Brake System (VBS) uses centrifugal force rather than magnets to aid in controlling the cast for increased distance and adjustability. • Cold Forged Handle Shank is much stronger than pressed or cast handle for non-flexing durability. • Reduced Mass VBS hub reduces the weight of the spool increasing freespool and reducing start up inertia. • Aluminum Frame • Aluminum Sideplates |
