Daiwa’s Airdrive design debuts in the Daiwa 23 Legalis spin reels courtesy of the latest redesign of one of the brand’s most value-packed spinning reel ranges. Sporting a new look, the 23 Legalis’ Airdrive rotor and bail arm reduce the weight of each respective part, combining to greatly reduce the start-up inertia, producing that sought-after buttery-smooth rotation anglers crave. A Zaion V composite body is impervious to the harsh saltwater elements and produces a rigid and sturdy frame to house the Tough Digigear drive system. The Legalis has always offered some of the best bang-for-buck amongst the Daiwa range, now it’s even better thanks to Airdrive Design.

Features:

• Airdrive Design -  Daiwa’s new Airdrive Design, a four pillar (Airdrive Rotor, Airdrive Bail, Airdrive Spool, and Airdrive Shaft) design concept that reduces weight, and enhances rotational smoothness and responsiveness to create a reel that is next level in both form and function.
• Zaion V Body - A new generation of Daiwa’s resin and carbon material. The Zaion V material is both strong and incredibly lightweight.
• ABS Longcast -  Compared to conventional spools, the LC-ABS has been shown to increase the average flight distance by approx. 5% due to its reduced weight and modified shape.
• Air Rotor -  Lighter, stronger and more balanced than any rotor system that’s come before, ‘Air Rotor’ delivers a great leap forward in rotor design and function and delivers the ultimate line roller support. Made from Zaion and featuring a redesigned arch that disperses pressure to the lower section of the rotor to reduce stressing and flexing, the design is further enhanced with a hollowed out construction reducing weight, while increasing reel sensitivity and rotational balance.
• ATD - Daiwa’s Automatic Tournament Drag uses an improved drag grease that exhibits a low viscosity at rest, yet becomes more viscous immediately after drag start up. This reduces initial drag start-up inertia and combined with the structural changes of the ATD Drag System results in a smoother drag from the initial hook up.
• Infinite Anti-Reverse - Daiwa's advanced system that limits rearward backplay handle movement to almost zero for solid hooksets with less shock to the reel. The result is the elimination of handle slap-back and the unwanted release of line.
• Pin Through Handle - An inline, pin-through handle assembly makes handle removal and installation simple and quick, with the handle inserted through the reel then secured into place with a threaded screw cap.
• Tough Digigear - A further evolution of its predecessor Digigear, Tough Digigear is Daiwa's brand new digitally designed, machine cut gearing system that ensures ultimate gear precision, rotational smoothness, and strength.
• Twist Buster II - This line twist reduction system takes line taming to another level with its tapered line roller enhanced to eliminate line twist like never before. More advanced and more equipped at reducing twist in fluorocarbon and mono than its predecessor, Twist Buster II is the answer to your line twist nightmares.
• Wire Bail - Featured on entry level reels Wire Bail is light, strong, ultra smooth and protrusion free, allowing line to slide effortless along the bail towards the line roller.
