I have no attachment to this British company at all. But I never see them mentioned and the quality of their aluminium bank sticks is superb and it's made here in the UK.
I bought them for using on the river Barbel fishing and when I got them I was very impressed with the appearance, design and quality. They have a milled grove on the inner so it never twists even sliding up and down.
They also have a really novel design for buzzer bars. If I did not already have a Solar Sod Pod set and a Defiant MPS one I would be tempted. But I think 3 complete set ups may be too much 😂

The owner is a really nice guy
I went in there when I needed something made for work and I was chatting to him for around an hour and a half.
The angling side is a small part of what they do kind of like jag

We're they involved with a tackle company at one point, pro logic or jrc come to mind?

I've had their chunky black banksticks/ buzz bars for years, they've been faultless and are pretty much bulletproof, they are V heavy though.

Well made sturdy stuff, I've had 3 rod bars for a while now. Only slight issue I found was the tapped hole in the upright was off centre on 2 of them, one of them quite badly. I questioned it with them and they said they would send a replacement but I never got them. For something that is well engineered and at the top end pricewise I would expect them to be able to drill and tap a hole in the centre of a bar!

Used them for years now, bulletproof kit that is lighter than stainless but heavier than carbon. Visited the factory (by arrangement) before buying and had a good chat with the guy who designed it all, nice fella who's name sadly escapes me. My only (minor) quibble is that the thumbscrews could do with being milled or rubberised at the ends so they can't come out. My banksticks have been abused and just keep going. It's solid gear. 👍
