Introducing
the Galvan
Torque Large
Arbor reel.
Function,
unique design,
and quality:
All the hallmarks
of the Galvan
tradition
are represented
in this completely
new reel.
What's different about it? Everything.
From
the rounded
spool and
frame rims,
to the
contoured
counter
balance,
to the
uniquely
designed
cutouts
on the
spool,
frame,
and drag
knob, to
the innovative
new drag
system,
the Torque
is clearly
a step
up in fly
reel design.
The drag system for the Torque is composed of stainless steel and a state-of-the-art,
heat- and wear-resistant thermoplastic unlike anything else on the reel
market. It is completely salt water safe, and will continue to perform
flawlessly under the harshest conditions from the flats and the blue
water to the mountain streams and the coastal rivers.
Its
unique design
does not
rely on ball
bearings,
but retains
the smoothness
of action
that Galvan
is known
for. The
ventilated
drag knob
is solidly
de tented
for precise
settings.
Quiet clicks
both in and
out add to
the distinctive
style. It
is easily
interchangeable
from right
to left-hand
retrieve
and the highly
ventilated
spool and
frame will
balance nicely
with the
lightest
of today's
fly rods.
The
Torque
is available
in bronze,black, green and clear
finishes.
From the
first sight,
the hand
is drawn
to the
reel. From
the first
spin of
the spool,
the quality
becomes
apparent.
Does form
follow
function,
or does
function
follow
form? In
the Torque,
it all
folds into
one.
