Lew's Accel DB Baitcast Combo Release & Model Guide
A closer look at what’s coming, what makes it different and what to know before you choose.
The Accel DB is Lew’s Digital Brake rod-and-reel combo. It is distinct from the standard Accel and Accel RX combos, and from the reel-only Accel DB 150.
Choose rod power and retrieve
All four models use a 7-foot, one-piece Fast-action rod. Medium models ACD1SH70M and ACD1SHL70M pair an 8–17 lb line rating with a 1/4–5/8 oz lure rating. Medium Heavy models ACD1SH70MH and ACD1SHL70MH use 10–25 lb and 3/16–3/4 oz ratings. An L in these model codes identifies left-hand retrieve.
Release and alerts
Lew’s currently labels the combo coming soon; an exact launch day and Kodiak delivery date are unconfirmed. Choose your configuration on the Accel DB combo product page for its availability alert. Signup does not place an order or reserve inventory.
For a reel without a rod, see the Accel DB 150 reel.
