Shimano TLD 2 Speed TLD two speed reels have long been the choice for anglers requiring the reliability and benefits of reduced weight from a graphite-framed overhead, coupled with a lower gear option for shifting stubborn fish. Tolerances are tight for use with braided line like Power Pro, the oversize handles on the 50 and 50LRS are the same as the Tiagra overheads, and chrome plated brass handle shanks give them real cranking power.
