Ipt is what matters to most people. The want an 8:1 for more line pick up. The new tatula takes up 83cm which is 32.6 ipt. The sv103 7:9:1 takes up 33.6 ipt so even though the gear ratio is slower it's actually faster. 2 Quote
LuckyHandsINC. Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I'm actually a little surprised by the price, comes out to about $250. The way the dollar/yen is right now I would expect the us version to be significantly more than that. I love my sv reels but I won't be paying that much for a tutula. Not when buying dicrectly is an option.Reels like the mgl and aldebaran are going for $270. Daiwa has the ss sv, alphas sv and zillion sv all for under $250. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted January 10, 2017 Super User Posted January 10, 2017 Where are you guys finding the price point of this reel being around $250ish? Quote

Super User kickerfish1 Posted January 10, 2017 Super User Posted January 10, 2017 I see, thanks Ripp'n. For $40-50 more I may just get the Zillion SV TW. I was hoping this Tat SV would be around or just over $200. 2 Quote

I was hoping this Tat SV would be around or just over $200. There are some differences between the jdm model and the us model so it could come in a bit cheaper. It also could be a tad higher though like the jdm alphas sv '$200' and the us sv 105 '$270' We will have to wait and see once it's released around the classic. The differences for those who are wondering... jdm - 80mm handle and different knobs. Usdm - 90mm handle and paddle knobs. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted January 10, 2017 Super User Posted January 10, 2017 Thanks for the follow up. My arsenal is going to get a bit overhauled in 2017 in favor of a few more SV reels. Quote

Might not be ideal if it's as shallow as the Zillion SV spool. 65# braid or higher fills the reel up fast! Fingers crossed 25 minutes ago, rippin-lips said: Just read that retail will be $199 for it. Do you think they'll just eliminate the generic and 7075 spools at this point in the TW variants? Tat and Zills with SV and Steez I'm reading is getting a upgraded G1. Quote

I'd venture to guess it's their best seller and a new 199$ tatula won't change that. Just filling a gap. The Steez SV TW already has a G1 spool. Quote

No there's a new Steez "A" TW model or something... ? Quote

I believe the new Steez SV A will use the same spool. The non TW steez sv also uses a G1 spool. 1 Quote

So what's gonna be the difference between existing Steez and the A model? Back to the Tats. I love my Zillion SV TWs interested in seeing these new Tats may have to upgrade a couple combos. I wonder if these will have a pinion or be free floating. Quote
RyneB Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 I know nothing about Daiwas, so pardon my stupidity. What does SV mean? Quote

The steez a will be made of alumnuim and have a 90mm tatula style handle and paddle knobs. Unless they completley redesigned the SV spool, it will be free floating. 3 minutes ago, RyneB said: I know nothing about Daiwas, so pardon my stupidity. What does SV mean?

THE_Vue's Posted January 11, 2017 Posted January 11, 2017 I'll add that the new Steez "A" will be magforce Z braking system. Man I miss that crazy fast Z spool because I like to use my thumb. Quote
