  • Century SS Kompressor super sport snapped

    I have snapped about 10 inches off the top section on my Century SS Kompressor super sport, so what i need to know is how much will it cost to replace it, or could i repair it by just having a new tip ring fitted.
    Thanks in advance.

      I got it second hand had it about 5 month.
      I suspect it was damaged when fishing in Scotland not sure, I was cleaning it it snapped when i flexed the tip end while drying it with a cloth.

          Cheers David, I might get a tip ring put on if possible, and see what it preforms like.
          I think it will be a lot stiffer but if it works I will use it as a spare.

            Shame to have to use it as a spare though after you paid good money for it
            It may of already been faulty when it was new but try what a said 1st to het it back to a fully workin century rather than sittin in the shed £££ down
