Is there a US version of the Calcutta Conquest 200XG?
No. Shimano North America's CALCUTTA CONQUEST 100-200 A table lists only CTCNQ200A, not a 200XG (checked 2026-10-08). The nearest listed US size is CTCNQ200A; the official values differ in gear ratio (7.5:1 in Japan, 4.8:1 in the US) and retrieve per crank (89 cm (≈ 35.0 in) in Japan, 22 in in the US).
| Item | JDM 200XG | US CTCNQ200A | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gear ratio | 7.5:1 | 4.8:1 | Differs |
| Weight | 235 g (≈ 8.3 oz) | 8.3 oz | Matches after our conversion |
| Max drag | 6 kg (≈ 13.2 lb) | Not confirmed | Cannot compare (value not published) |
| Retrieve per crank | 89 cm (≈ 35.0 in) | 22 in | Differs |
US values are Shimano North America official figures; ≈ values are our unit conversions of the Japanese figures. Gaps within rounding (0.15 oz, 1 lb, 0.6 in) count as a match.
Is the JDM Calcutta Conquest 200XG cheaper than the US CTCNQ200A?
It depends on the exchange rate, so we cannot give a yes or no. The official figures are ¥61,900 in Japan (before consumption tax) and $599.99 in the US (US price, Shimano North America online store). We do not convert currencies. Dividing one by the other, the Japanese list price is the lower number when one US dollar buys more than ¥103.2. CTCNQ200A is not the same size code as the Japanese 200XG, so this is not a like-for-like price.
The Japanese figure excludes Japan's consumption tax (the page says so); the US page shows its price without mentioning tax. Shipping, import duties and shop prices are not included.
