Megabass Evoluzion MX40 Spinning Going back a quarter century, the rod that boldly pioneered the 21st century bass scene is engraved in the hearts of experts who have been in the bass fishing world for a long time. It's name is Destroyer [Evoluzion]. Based on the blank mandrel of Megabass' flagship rod, Destroyer, ITO Engineering succeeded in developing a unique composite shaft by implanting titanium fiber into the carbon graphite layer of the original Destroyer. This opened the door to another world of rod engineering different from Megabass. The successive Evoluzion rods have acquired a torqueful and flexible character with rich spring elasticity unique to titanium, which sets them apart from the original Destroyer with its ultra-high elasticity shaft. They have highly embodied the comfortable bass fishing ergonomics that professionals who fight long tours seek. 25 years after its debut, ITO Engineering has developed a new titanium blank format to realize highly versatile adjustability of methods and schemes in the increasingly diverse bass fishing of today and the near future. Ultra-low resin, high modulus carbon graphite MX40 is densely synthesized with ultra-thin micro titanium fibers made of shape memory super titanium. A new titanium composite shaft has been created that has dynamically evolved to achieve an unprecedented extremely high tensile breaking strength, and can bend 17% more than ever before, demonstrating high rigidity and strong tenacity. Super titanium with enhanced shape memory properties exhibits high vibration transmission characteristics of a metal due to its high recovery performance. It gives "enhanced sensitivity" to a torqueful shaft that can be bent. In other words, the new Evoluzion can expand the fast-moving game with improved "underwater resolution" to a wider range of areas, while also bringing a high-tension feel that is unlike any previous Evo, such as "hooking" heavy cover or deep with jigs and Texas rigs. Ito has been building the HTI (Human Tackle Interface) for many years, and has devised a number of the latest ergonomic parts, such as the NEW Slant Bridge (PAT.P) and Head Locking System (PAT.), which are shaped from his own ergonomics using multi-dimensional structural theory. These were created to "comfortably catch monsters" in all angling movements. The healthy madness of the craftsman has forged the modern demon sword. The New Evoluzion will fully execute the cyber game. F3.1/2-73tix-S LAIKIRI Named after the legendary lightning-splitting sword, LAIKIRI is the flagship spinning model of the EVOLUZION series. Engineered for superior long-casting performance with light rigs and 1/20z class shad and minnow plugs, its titanium-reinforced blank surpasses traditional spinning rods in strength, rigidity, resilience, and responsiveness. Ergonomically balanced by the Slant Bridge grip, this 7’3” rod handles smoothly with compact movements, enabling anglers to swiftly cover vast water expanses without fatigue. The light tip allows for nimble reaction, turning this long rod into a precision strike in open terrain. The LAIKIRI introduces a new standard for power spinning rods, offering lightning-fast responsiveness, extraordinary distance, and dominating strength. With LAIKIRI, a new chapter in long-distance power spinning begins. Length 7'3" Lure 1/8-5/8oz Line 6-16lb Power MEDIUM LIGHT + Action MEDIUM FAST F3st-611ti-S HEDGEHOG SYRINGE The HEDGEHOG SYRINGE merges the iconic solid-tip sensitivity of the historic HEDGEHOG series with the cutting-edge titanium shaft technology of EVOLUZION. Its solid tip is optimized to reliably detect and trigger bites during the most demanding short-strike windows—ideal for small rubber jigs, dropshots, and neko rigs that would otherwise be too light for a rod of this power. The rod’s high-density MX40 and super titanium fibers visibly reinforce the belly and butt sections, delivering crisp, reinforced tension for instantaneous hooksets and the kind of deep, powerful flex that absorbs the fight of relentless big bass—resulting in richly controlled torque. Unlike conventional solid tip rods made of pure carbon, the titanium’s spring back elasticity allows effortless long casts even with lightweight rigs, offering both comfort and control in your cast. Length 6'11" Lure 1/16-1/2oz Line 4-12lb Power MEDIUM LIGHT Action EX. FAST F2.1/2-70ti-S TSUBAMEGAESHI The TSUBAMEGAESHI is a versatile, long-distance spinning rod featuring a smooth, masterfully engineered variable taper that transitions seamlessly from medium-fast to regular action. Built for finesse approaches like drop-shotting, Neko, and wacky rigs, this rod offers unmatched adaptability across varied conditions and extended ranges. Its sensitive tip captures even the faintest short strikes, while the MX40 Super Titanium Hybrid shaft resilience feels as if it strengthens progressively under load, ensuring sweeping hooksets deliver deep hook penetration. Combining responsive maneuverability with the robust backbone of Super Titanium, this rod equips anglers to aggressively dissect expansive water, establishing itself as an essential long-distance finesse tool for challenging conditions. Length 7'0" Lure 1/16-3/8oz Line 4-12lb Power LIGHT + Action MEDIUM FAST-REGULAR F1.1/2-610ti-S LYCAON LD LYCAON LD specializes in comfortable, long-distance approaches with lightweight rigs. Its 6’10” MX40 Super Titanium Hybrid Shaft excels at broad, multi-purpose softbait presentations, while also offering high-level responsiveness for finesse plugs such as the SIGLETT, KARASHI, and SHADING-X R 55 series. The rod’s Super Titanium fibers deliver exceptional elasticity under load, effortlessly setting hooks into wary trophy fish and generating surprising torque to confidently win extended battles. A refined evolution of the classic Destroyer spinning model LYCAON, this super titanium-enhanced variant sets a new benchmark for finesse versatility.
