Upon closer inspection of the reel, it looks to be deisgned off of a Lew's reel platform. The overall look, and position of the sideplates, and such seem to be just like a Lew's.

I wonder if thats a special limited release or an early intro of a new model. It looks like it's an upgraded reel from the standard carbonlite. The drag system is impresive. It also comes in 3 ratios unlike the standard carbonlite that only came in 6.4:1

That looks like a sweeeeet fun little reel. A light version of the Carbon Black. Thats what it seems like to me anyways. If someone will send me one I'll try it out and let you guys know how she works!

Interesting. Love the looks of it, should be a great reel! Super light too... I guess it ties for 1st with the lightest AL frame with the Exo.

Looks like they're also mixing up the Extreme reels this year as well, a totally new design for the Extremes. It kind of reminds me of the Prolite reels that were on special this year.
