WELCOME TO GENERATION

2012 PRODUCT GUIDE

™

Metal where it matters.™

ADDITION BY SUBTRACTION. Welcome to Generation Exo. Where we shoot conventional design full of holes.

Where an exoskeletal aluminum frame sheds excess weight without sacrificing strength. And where mere ounces deliver

a ton of fish-fighting performance.

“We can always make a good design better.” That’s the unwavering philosophy behind the Quantum® Performance Tuned®

series. Because it’s sweating the details and pushing the engineering that last 5% that makes all the difference. Reaching

another 10 feet of casting distance. Trimming the last half ounce of weight. These refinements happen only when Quantum

engineers question conventional wisdom to find a better way.

It’s exactly this kind of thinking that led to the new Quantum Exo PT™ products. We gave our engineers a simple challenge:

design the lightest possible fishing gear without any sacrifice in performance. This prompted a revolution in reel design

that in many ways is a very simple solution. We call it “Metal where it Matters”. And it has yielded Quantum’s first ever

exoskeletal design and our lightest product ever. But that’s just part of the story. Exo PT™ reels also make leaps forward

in performance with some serious, industry-first innovation (that also happens to look pretty tricked-out). So join

Generation Exo.

We subjected our Exo PT™ baitcast to a crush test in

the Quantum® development lab (we don’t expect this

to ever happen to your reel, but our engineers like

to torture our products in the name of progress).

Exo withstood over 1700 lbs of downward force and

continued to perform flawlessly. That means it can

support over 4000 times its weight.

“Metal Where it Matters”. That’s the thinking behind our exoskeletal hybrid construction. It

combines a special, ultra-rigid aluminum alloy in load bearing areas with a lightweight composite

that reduces weight in non-critical locations by 50%. This allows us to build the lightest possible

frame with absolutely no sacrifice in strength. In fact, it’s 38% stronger than magnesium and 6

times stronger than a graphite composite frame.

In short, we shaved weight from Exo PT™ reels every place we could afford for a difference you’ll

feel on the water. You’ll fish stronger, longer with the sensitivity you need to detect the lightest

of bites – and the rock solid performance and durability you demand when targeting trophy fish.

Welcome to Generation Exo. Where addition is achieved by subtraction. Where a radically simple exoskeletal design sheds excess

The Exo PT™ spinning reel rotor uses a revolutionary

new material from Quantum® called C4LF™. It’s an

exclusive polymer infused with long strands of carbon

fiber. Most carbon-infused materials have carbon

strands that are 1-2mm in length. Our C4LF™ carbon

strands average 8mm in length. These longer strands

align themselves in a much stronger matrix and result

in a rotor design that’s 2.6 times stronger than normal

composites. This minimizes rotor arm flex under

heavy drag loads while producing a design that’s 80%

lighter than our standard rotors.

carbon fiber material, showing the longer fiber length.

EXO STRENGTH

All Exo PT™ reels feature an aluminum drive gear that

is ported to remove excess weight. Yet our special

aluminum alloy can hold up under the toughest fish

fighting conditions. And our 7.3:1 “Burner” baitcast

gear set gobbles up an amazing 31 inches of line

per turn of the handle with a smooth, vibration-free

retrieve.

Exo PT™ baitcast features a micro-sized version of

our exclusive ACS™ cast control system. It offers a wide range of centrifugal brake settings that can be fine-tuned with the turn of a dial (easily accessed under a removable side cover). Factor in the low start-up inertia of our exoskeletal super light spool and it all adds up to longer casts.

Quantum’s exclusive CSC™ drag system combines a series

of carbon, stainless steel, and ceramic disks for optimum

drag performance. The carbon disks provide a friction

surface that delivers high drag lockdown while maintaining

smoothness. The ceramic disks have low start-up inertia

and dissipate heat quickly on extended runs. The stainless

disks impart the strength to keep the system in alignment

under load. The results are an extremely smooth drag that

can take the heat of any fishing situation.

The new lightweight spool on Exo PT™ spinning reels employs our MaxCast™II

design. Greater casting performance is achieved by a variable oscillation

system that lays line evenly on the spool.

The spool lip configuration is optimized for today’s range of line types and

smaller, more compact rod guides. The concave radius on the back of the lip

prevents line from contacting the spool prior to the exit radius, creating less

friction for longer casts. The system also keeps the line in tighter coils as it

exits the spool to flow more freely and minimize backlashes and wind knots

caused by looser coils. Our tests revealed a 10% increase in average casting

distance over a standard spool lip design.

Combine this system with the micro guide set on our Exo PT™ rods and you

have a deadly accurate, long-distance casting machine.

PT™ HOT SAUCE

Exo PT™ spinning’s new Tru-Balance® handle design incorporates a one-

piece 6061 tempered aluminum handle arm for maximum strength. The

skeletal handle shaft has a unique rear leaning design to counterbalance the

handle knob weight for vibration-free cranking. The comfortable EVA knob

completes the featherlight design.

We use the same tempered aluminum for

our skeletal baitcast handle. Contoured

EVA grips add comfort and produce one of

the lightest handles on the market.

All Quantum® PT reels, including the new Exo

series, feature our custom-made PT bearings

– the smoothest in the industry. They’re made

from high-grade stainless steel and feature a

shielded polymer cage for durability.

Quantum® Hot Sauce™ is the industry standard in lu-

brication. The oil’s viscosity levels yield a freer ro-

tation of moving parts by molecularly bonding with

the base metal. Our grease is made with exclusive

tackifiers that hold to wear surfaces longer.

Kevin VanDam has been fishing Quantum® reels his entire professional career that includes 4 Bassmaster Classic titles, 6 Angler-of-the-Year titles and more than $5 million in earnings. Quantum’s TourKVD reels were engineered to be the best tournament reels ever, because they were designed by the best bass fisherman ever.

FEATURES

When the world’s greatest bass fisherman challenged

us to increase line capacity without changing the

overall size of his reel, our engineers created the

Quantum® 150-size spool. This special design handles

nearly 40% more line, yet allows us to keep the basic

size of the reel unchanged.

At maximum RPMs, the Automatic ACS™III system

deploys twin braking “shoes” that apply just the right

amount of pressure to the inside of the spool. This

pressure pushes the ACS™III mechanism into the

braking disk inside the bayonet-mounted side cover

where the 9 brake pins assist to keep the spool from

over-spinning and causing backlash. At low RPMs,

such as when pitchin’ and flippin’, the twin brakes

don’t engage, allowing the spool to spin more freely.

Quantum’s Smoke PT 100-size models feature

our revolutionary Micro ACS™ cast control

system, while the 150-size models feature our

Infinite ACS™II system, giving you absolute

control in any fishing conditions and for your

style of fishing.

Quantum® engineers developed new spool designs used on all Performance

Tuned® baitcasting reels, including our Smoke™ PT series. In order to increase

line capacity without significantly altering the overall size of the reel, the

engineers created our 150-size spool with a unique design that increases line

capacity by nearly 40%. They also reduced the weight of the spool through

precision machining which has increased the spool’s spin rate for greater

casting distance and accuracy. The 100-size spool also benefits from the same

weight-reducing machining in a more compact size.

Quantum’s Smoke™ PT series includes 9 different models including 4 left-hand

models. Both the 100-size and 150-size Smoke PT reels are available in different

gear ratios, including our “Burner” gears and powerful cranking gears.

We assembled our designers and spent months in the lab fine-

tuning these rods to the exact specifications of each pro angler.

What they have in their boats today are more than technique-

specific, they are the-man-and-his-technique-specific. Every

aspect is optimized for absolute mastery of their bread-and-butter

applications. That being said, these rods are not for everyone.

They are built specifically for those who demand highly specialized

equipment, custom-matched to the elevated skills of the world’s

best.

Have a crappie day.

Another legend re-joins the Quantum Team!For 35 years, the Lindner name has been synonymous with producing award winning instructional fishing programs. The Lindner’s have developed a number of innovative fishing techniques and educated the fishing public on how to become better anglers. Al and family have used Quantum® equipment for a good part of their careers. In 2012, Lindner’s Angling Edge® and Quantum have once again teamed up to present the first ever line of Angling Edge products specifically designed for today’s techniques to target most popular northern species like muskie, walleye, northern pike, panfish, and smallmouth bass. Each product was designed by the Lindner team and refined in collaboration with the Quantum development staff until the lineup was perfect for each specific technique.

Al Lindner has made a science out of refining the small presentation details when

targeting multiple fish species. You’ll find that same attention to detail in the new

Quantum Angling Edge® series.

Quantum’s Angling Edge® rod series is technique specific. Each action

was designed with specific techniques in mind for targeting bass,

walleyes, and big pike and muskie. Hang tags include a recommended

“go to” techniques for each action based on years of Lindner fishing

knowledge. Every detail from guide size and placement, blank actions,

and handle configuration was specified by Angling Edge team.
