Product Description
The 13-metre Aero X2 is the perfect rod for anglers looking for versatility and mid-range quality, but who don’t need the full length of a longer and more expensive model. Suitable for carp and white fish, the Aero X2 is well-balanced, stiff, and has a great reserve of power. For extra versatility, the top kits are compatible with the full range of Aero rods.
If you’re the type of angler who doesn’t fish beyond 13 metres and is looking for a versatile rod, the 13-metre Aero X2 could be the perfect solution. This mid-priced model is very appealing – after all, you’re not paying for extra length that you will never use! Built from high-quality Japanese carbon (a very similar blend to that of the X5), the X2 is very balanced, lightweight, and stiff, even when fished at full length. If you mainly fish for carp and specimen carp, the Aero X2 is an excellent choice when fitted with the Super Power Kit, and it can handle large elastics and very combative fish. Install the lighter Super Match Kit, and it will immediately enhance your white fish fishing on lakes and rivers.
The versatile performance of the Aero X2 Competition directly benefits from the development programme used during the design of the Aero Pro. The combination of high-quality Japanese carbon and advanced cones makes it a great choice if you are looking for versatility and sturdiness at an affordable price. The Aero X2 features a range of characteristics that reinforce Shimano's commitment to producing the best, regardless of the price. The Aero Joint is a reinforcement that improves longevity, the Aero Alignment System maximises stiffness, and the Shimano Ultra Sound Finish ensures super smooth navigation in all conditions. Moreover, all indicated lengths are perfectly accurate when extensions are installed, so you can be sure you’re getting your money’s worth. You’ll also notice that reinforcement bands have been integrated into the top kits, allowing you to install the extraction kit of your choice. Finally, the widest sections are not interchangeable with the more expensive Aero X5, X7, or Pro rods, but the top kits are interchangeable, allowing you to buy additional kits to complement the X2 rod set, which offers great value for money. An extension up to 14.5 metres is also available.
