WHAT IS IT?
Lew’s Speed Spool RX
WHAT SETS IT APART?
Lew’s signature P2 Super Pinion is a double-bearing gear designed to improve gear longevity and ensure consistently smooth performance with every cast. Additionally, the Speed Spool RX features an eight-bearing system, with double-shielded stainless steel ball bearings for consistently durable and reliable performance. Bolstering its longevity, Lew’s assembles this new reel with a one-piece aluminum frame and lightweight graphite side plates. The result — confidence-boosting strength, reduced weight and the absence of frame flex.
HOW DO I USE IT?
Lew’s invested significant effort into blending advanced engineering and precision construction with the goal of maximizing power, control and smooth operation. Central to this Speed Spool RX appeal is the innovative ParaMag RX magnetic braking system; a game-changing technology that applies even force across the brake surface to create perfect spool balance. Created to minimize backlashes and eliminate friction noises, the ParaMag system is free of electronics, requiring no batteries or charging.

ANGLER’S INSIGHT:
Among the impressive Speed Spool RX features is the hard-anodized aluminum Speed Gears, which are cut on high-end Hamai CNC (computer numerical control) machines. This process ensures smooth cranking power with reduced wear while minimizing unnecessary weight. Another one: The carbon fiber drag system that delivers up to 20 pounds of max drag means you’ll put the brakes on whatever you hook. Lastly, the spool’s Knot Slot feature, which simplifies line attachment is a nice touch.
