No they pay up to and over 2k+ for a baitboat instead

A mere 2k, Pftt. If you're poor you do...

Given sales of the 14000 aero technium were below the prior 12000 model and that most seemed to go for second hand 12000's, I'm not surprised they have brought out this model, taking the chrome design features directly from the 12000. Adding the 45mm spool and increasing the body size has reduced the appeal to me; whilst I'm sure it will now cast a bit further than the 35mm spools, in the right hands, it now looks like the oversized Daiwa's, albeit with Shimano's superior engineering. I quite liked the old 14000 model but I never really saw any real gains to justify the £200 price differential over the Power Aero; same applies here really, prefer the slightly more compact size of the power aero and only 5gms weight difference, which makes no difference

I like em, small but important upgrades, being a heavy mono user at distance these look good.

Need the blingy ones though to match me blingy alps and blingy metalware, bring em on I say.

The no spare spool though is not good at all

Fair enough, yep agree re spare spool, they should do better at current £620 rrp!
