Ross Momentum Fly Reel |
|
 |
|
The Momentum
series has been in development for more than two years.
Ross Reels primary focus has been the incorporation of
carbon fiber into the drag system, so the entire reel
could benefit from the desirable properties of this
incredible material. Stiffness, strength, heat
resistance, shock-damping capabilities and infinite
fatigue resistance are all properties of carbon fiber
that will help make the Momentum drag system the
strongest and most dependable big game reel on the
market today. The question remained - where would they
begin? The answer was obvious - Kestrel USA - The First
Name in Carbon Fiber! |

|
Kestrel USA
bike company was a perfect choice for Ross Reels when
choosing a carbon savvy company as an engineering
partner for the development of the Momentum's carbon
fiber drag system. Kestrel's corporate philosophies
embody the same values and principals that Ross has
promoted for over 30 years. Ross Reels vast experience
in fly reel design and manufacturing is equally matched
by Kestrel's expertise in design and production of
carbon fiber components. Kestrel has been manufacturing
the world's finest carbon fiber bikes since 1987. In
fact, Kestrel designed and produced the very first
all-carbon bike frame. They are pioneers in the carbon
fiber industry and Ross is thrilled that a company of
their caliber agreed to join them in the development of
this new drag technology. When it comes to engineering,
development and production of carbon fiber products,
Kestrel has written the book and their expertise with
carbon fiber is simply unmatched. |

Welcome to the
next generation of Ross products! The Momentum series
represents a cosmic departure from current Ross designs
in both function and style. The carbon fiber Ross has
employed for the Momentum drag system is incredibly
strong! The measurement of the strength for this
material is "ksi", which denotes tensile strength in
thousands of pounds per square inch. So just how strong
is our carbon fiber drag system? To get a good
perspective on this, the aluminum used to produce Ross
products is 45ksi; meaning it can resist a tension load
of 45,000 pounds per square inch of material. This is
pretty impressive until you realize that the carbon
fiber used in the Momentum drag system is 700ksi Ð
vastly stronger than aluminum, steel and even titanium! |

The first time
you handle a Momentum reel, you will be amazed with its
meticulous machining and ergonomic design. Ross has
custom fit this series with a large but unobtrusive drag
knob - easily found for adjustment during the heat of
battle, but never in the way. Additionally, the Momentum
handle has been designed to fit comfortably between your
fingers, but will never slip free when taking on a
monster fish. Each reel in this series is designed with
a specific diameter and width to maximize the properties
of drag consistency and line retrieval. With 6.3 square
inches of effective drag surface, and 12 pounds of dead
lift weight, the Momentum series has three times the
effective stopping power of every drag tested. Put
simply, the Momentum is the strongest fly fishing reel
on the market today. A triple-redundancy drag
system ensures dependability under the most demanding
fishing conditions, and by adding in features like a
titanium drag components, a quick-release locking spool
and water shedding grooves on the palming rim, you have
the ultimate big game fly fishing reel. With a wide
range of sizes available, the Momentum series is
appropriate for any fishing application, including Spey. |
