Just stripped a xra1083 built as a conventional and rebuilt it as a light spinner using Titanium KL20H-KL10H-KL8m to KT 8 runners. This is a great layout for 9-10ft rods and 4000-5000 sized reels. The rod itself looks awful (since there is no foregrip to cover the old scars and I had no interest in repainting the blank) but casts the nuts. Plan to try it for shore albie stuff.
