Not sure if these are what you wanted to see but its the best I could do.
I had to get a 'proper' camera out just to get these.

Go to Mark Tunley and get a pair of 2.25 lbs tc Torrix in chestnut brown with cork handles. Bloody lovely!

Jeffire is building mine as we speak, in the guise of the infamous Baby Sniper spec. Cannot wait to get a bend in them babies 👌

I think I would dislike the brown more than the green tbh.

I have a carbon fettish and like the carbon to be plain and showing as much detail of the weave possible.

Unless I find something for a comparable price that I could sell the green ones for I'll probably end up keeping them as apart from the colour they are exactly what I wanted.

I still have a pair of these and 3x 2.5lb- wonderful rods. The whole NG range up until the NG+, for me, are fantastic rods. Well worth searching for a well conditioned 2nd hand set.

Just sell them and move on, you're never going to be happy with them

Maybe I'll just paint them with some black Hammerite, I've always liked that finish.
Are you sure?
