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 pricier model. Suitable for carp and silverfish, the Aero X2 is well balanced, stiff, and has plenty of power reserve. For added versatility, the top kits are compatible with the full range of Aero rods. If you're the type of angler who doesn't fish over 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’ll never use! Built from high-quality Japanese carbon (a combination very similar to that of the X5), the X2 is very balanced, light, and stiff, even when fished at full length. If you mainly fish for carp and mirror carp, the Aero X2 is an excellent choice when fitted with the Super Power Kit and can handle heavy elastics and very fighting fish. Set up the lighter Super Match Kit and it will immediately enhance your fishing for silverfish in 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're looking for versatility and strength at an affordable price. The Aero X2 features a series of characteristics that reinforce Shimano's commitment to producing the best, regardless of 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 handling in all conditions. Additionally, all stated lengths are perfectly accurate when the extensions are installed, so you can be sure you’re getting your money’s worth. You will also notice that reinforcement bands have been integrated into the top kits, allowing you to install your choice of extraction kit. Finally, the wider sections are not interchangeable with the more expensive Aero X5, X7, or Pro rods, but the top kits are, allowing you to purchase additional kits to complete the X2 rod set, which offers great value for money. An extension up to 14.5m is also available.
