Celebrating 60 years of innovation isn’t easy, that’s why we’ve held nothing back in creating the all new 18 Exist LT. Our flagship model, Exist has personified excellence throughout Daiwa’s history, and now the new Exist LT introduces even more ground-breaking Daiwa technology. The all new Exist LT features our brand-new Light & Tough (LT) concept, reducing reel size while at the same time increasing strength and power. Monocoque body also debuts in Exist LT for the first time through the entire size range. Monocoque body produces a truly one-piece frame with no side plate. Instead, the side plate is replaced by the main drive gear and drive gear housing, which screws into the body allowing for maximum gear diameter and ultimate rigidity. By increasing the main gear diameter, monocoque reels exhibit improved winding power and torque. In fact, you will find the brand-new Machine Cut Tough Digigear inside the new Exist LT is up to 109% larger than non-monocoque reels. The Exist LT’s monocoque body is our most advanced, lightest and strongest body we’ve ever developed. The new Exist LT is available now.
