if they can be had for £20 it might be worth a punt, i think the flextec website had them listed for a lot of money though in the past at least.

There is a thread on here about flextec rods, as used by the Ireland fly fishing team. Subject being that they seemed to have a tendency to snap. From what i remember, it seemed to be a problem with the 4 section rods. Several posts mentioned this, but there were also some very positive responses about flextec rods that weren't 4 section.
