Which Saltiga sizes share the same body?
Sizes that print the same spool dimensions and max drag in Daiwa Japan's table are grouped together. Within a group, the size code mostly changes the gear ratio (and sometimes handle or weight). This is our grouping from the official figures, not a Daiwa frame definition, and it says nothing about whether parts swap.
