That reputation has been maintained through three previous TDR families, including the arrival of the first 4012 size in 2014. Today, the 4012 still retrieves 87cm per handle turn.
The 24 TDR family is still built upon an aluminium body, so the drive and pinion stay perfectly aligned when rotating under stress. This combined with Digigear II and 7BB delivers a superior level of smoothness throughout.
