You probably already new this as we repeatably informed in past posts, but just in case this could be your first post of new DAIWA’s baitcasting reel – DAIWA announced new baitcaster reel design, HyperDrive Design.
This concept is themed to keep the initial feeling longer by 4 new features containing.
HyperDrive Digigear is renewed Digigear, which has enhanced toughness and durability but fit gear to gear better so has more smoothness and lasts longer.
Hyper Double Support is the pinion gear support system, that 2 ball bearings hold and support both sides of the pinion gear to create extra smoothness of reeling.

Hi,
Are there any differences between the US market Daiwa Tatula 300H and the JDM tatula 300 besides the gear ratio?
Does the US Tatula 300H come with the HyperDrive Design?
thanks
Hi Dave, thanks for your comment. As DAIWA staff confirmed that Japanese model and US model are exactly the same, so Tatula 300H designed with HyperDrive Design as well.
