With a 5.0:1 retrieval ratio and 4+1 ball bearing system, it brings smooth, controlled winding to every retrieve. The composite body and rotor keep weight down while the aluminium main spool maintains strength under load, and the multi-disc front drag delivers up to 5.0kg of stopping power for landing larger sportfish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStep onto the bow of your tinny as the sun breaks over the mangrove line — the Virtus 4000's high-capacity spool handles longer traces and heavier leaders with ease. The computer-balanced rotor cuts vibration on the cast, and the aluminium foldable handle packs away cleanly when you're navigating through tight cover. Titanium nitride roller coating stands up to repeated exposure to estuarine and offshore conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for Australian anglers since 1944, Ryobi's Virtus 4000 is a workhorse reel that punches above its price point. The high-capacity spool variant is particularly suited to barra, threadfin salmon, and mulloway in both freshwater and saltwater environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in four sizes: 1000, 2000 (high capacity spool), 3000, and 4000 (high capacity spool)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast retrieve with a gear ratio of 5:1:1 (1000\/2000), 5.0:1 (3000\/4000)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipped with 4 ball bearings and 1 roller bearing for smooth operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-disc front drag system for precise control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurable composite body and rotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium main spool ensures strength and longevity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComputer balanced rotor for vibration-free performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong, ergonomic handle with a comfortable knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAluminium foldable handle for convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoller coated with titanium nitride for durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" cellspacing=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGear Ratio\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBall Bearings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight (g)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMax.
