Product Comparison: Shimano ‎BTR4000D vs Shimano ‎BTRST4000FB


General Specifications
About the Product
The Baitrunner D gives you the confidence of a legendary drivetrain and auto-return Baitrunner feature as well as better castability, better line lay, less backlash, wind knots or tangles, less friction on the line, larger, more comfortable grips, a higher max drag as well as a wider range of Baitrunner settings than its predecessors.
Available in the same sizes as the DL, but with fewer ball bearings, the Baitrunner ST-FB is the entry level small Baitrunner. Varispeed line lay, Super Stopper II plus XT-7 body and rotor are among the many advanced design features included in the ST’s construction.
