At 2.40m (7.87ft) with an 18–52g casting weight, it's a versatile lure rod suitable for targeting trout, salmon, kahawai and perch, while its compact transport length makes it particularly convenient for road trips, flights and fishing adventures where space is limited.
Built around a premium 45Ton+ Japanese Diamond Carbon IM-12+ blank, the rod weighs just 165g and is finished with a FUJI reel seat, Titanium SIC guides and Portuguese natural cork handle.

A Proper Travel Rod Without the Bulk
The four-piece construction is the standout feature of the Edition IM-12 Travel Spin. Despite providing a full 2.40m fishing length, the rod breaks down to only 65cm.
That makes it easy to store in a vehicle, pack with other fishing gear or take away on fishing trips without dealing with the length of a conventional two-piece rod.
The supplied hard case provides additional protection while the rod is being transported or stored.
Versatile 18–52g Lure Rating
With an 18–52g casting range, this isn't simply a lightweight emergency travel rod. It provides a useful lure range for a variety of freshwater and saltwater spinning applications.
It's particularly well suited to anglers travelling around New Zealand and targeting different species, including trout, salmon and kahawai.
45Ton+ IM-12 Diamond Carbon Blank
The rod is manufactured from 45Ton+ Japanese Diamond Carbon (IM-12+), providing a lightweight and responsive blank while keeping the complete rod to just 165g.
Premium components include a FUJI reel seat, Titanium SIC guides and Portuguese natural cork handle, giving the travel rod the component specification expected from Balzer's Edition IM-12 range.
Easy Alignment System
Each rod section features a small white alignment dot.
Simply assemble the four sections with the dots aligned to correctly position the blank and guides. It's a simple but useful feature that makes assembling the rod accurately and consistently much easier.
