Century SS Kompressor super sport snapped

[Mad as a fish]

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.

How old is the rod how did it snap i would'nt know about just fitting a new tip ring the action i would think will be all different.

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.

Try and get in touch with the lad you bought it off he may still have the receipts for it so it still be under warrenty if that fails get intouch with century and they will qoute you for a tip section
Shame coz that seemed like a canny rod

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

century would replace it but they charge half of what the rod costs new but i would give them a ring there in washington they may be able to sort something out.
