Which Calcutta Conquest MD sizes share the same body?
Sizes that print the same spool dimensions and max drag in Shimano 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 Shimano frame definition, and it says nothing about whether parts swap.
| Sizes | Spool | Max drag | Weight | Gear ratios | US SKU |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 300XG, 300XGLH | 43 mm dia. / 22 mm width | 8 kg | 335–360 g | 7.5:1 | CTCNQMD300XGLHB |
| 400XG, 400XGLH | 43 mm dia. / 30.5 mm width | 8 kg | 340–365 g | 7.5:1 | CTCNQMD400XGLHB |
