Extremely nice and compact telescopic rods which find room in any backpack to tackle mountain canals and streams. The CX-1 High Modulus carbon structure includes a sensitive solid carbon tip with a sliding guide. The SiC rings feature a minimal metal frame creating a super compact guide set which is also self-protecting against accidental impacts as the tip is completely hidden inside the other sections. The ergonomic reel seat has a steel hood regulated by an elegant woven-carbon knob.
