Daiwa 22 Exist LT Spinning Reels really are the Reel for the future. Created to lead the way, the centre of attention amongst DAIWA. To create and change the future of the fishing scene the new AIRDRIVE DESIGN was created to be the pinnacle, the one which all will follow. By reducing the weight of rotor, spool & bail assembly, a lighter rotation is achieved with the effortless rotation allows the angler to feel the true joy of trouble free function.

To begin the creation of AIRDRIVE DESIGN, first DAIWA separated the spinning reel to two key components. The first was the ‘rear unit’ which consists of the body & key internal components like the drive gear. By introducing MQ technology along with the tough digigear which is now becoming standard of DAIWA’s spinning reel, it has given the rear unit high strength and durability.

Following the development of the rear unit, DAIWA set out to redevelop the key components that make up what is called the ‘front unit’. By redeveloping the rotor, spool & bail assembly DAIWA has managed to reduce the weight of front unit in 2022. Years in the making, AIRDRIVE DESIGN is the result of this new thinking. DAIWA has developed an innovative masterpiece allowing anglers to be in total control, reduced weight, smooth rotation and high response allows the reel to spin freely. All of those combined elements come together to create AIRDRIVE DESIGN.
