The Vexsis defines modern Ross technology and is built around a powerful drag system consisting of Carbon Fiber, Rulon and Ceramic. The Carbon supports mechanical strength, infinite heat and fatigue resistance and shock-dampening. The Ceramic provides an incompressible heat resistant surface that maintains drag consistency. By combining these elements in the correct sequence with self-lubricating Rulon, you end up with a perfect brake system!
In addition to a world-class drag, the Vexsis series is loaded with modern reel technology, including the first ever Magnalock® magnetic spool release system that powerfully pulls the spool onto the frame and securely locks the system. The drag knob incorporates a revolutionary multi-ball thrust bearing drag for an almost perfectly linear drag response, resulting in a constant, smooth feel through multiple knob rotations. Regardless of how much drag has been applied to the Vexsis system, the drag knob rotation is effortless. In addition, a dual radial pawl escapement provides a backup system to ensure dependability under the most demanding fishing conditions. The Vexsis truly is the pinnacle of modern fly reel design.
