Thinking of getting these in the 316 stainless set up but just wanted to clarify a couple of things.
1 - Will the uprights fit in the singlez bag with a Fox RX+ attached to the 6.5 inch upright?
2 - For Big Pit reels (Tournament S 5000T's or Shimano Power Aero's), would I need a 9.5 inch rear and 10.5 inch front buzz bar or a 10.5 inch rear and 11.5 inch front.
Also, can anyone who owns them provide any positive or negative feedback on them. Would rather have the alarms already attached if possible to save time setting up etc.
Thanks in advance.
Alternatively I may look at the patriot set ups from Matrix Innovations or the Jag 2 plus 1 set ups.

Can't help you with the alarm on question
You want the widest bars they do, and even then they are a very tight fit with bigger reels. This is the reason I sold mine as the Shimano big baitrunner I use for catfish wouldn't fit at all. My slightly smaller daiwa 45s went on but were as snug as you'd ever want them.

I use the larger size buzz bars available for my Techs. Found the Singlez bag too small for my needs. Can't remember if the RXs fit in there tho.

Thanks mate. It certainly does look tight. Was going to make the most of the 20% off at Hull Angling but I'll probably just look at either the Jag 2 plus 1 or Matrix Innovations patriot now.

If you like the way the singlez system works take a look at the original, the Defiant MPS Leopard system. Keith will make each part to your spec so you can choose buzz bar width and bank stick height. Also made from titanium rather than heavy 316.

Leopard system works out about £200, for an extra £40 you can get an adjustable bar to convert to a pod so everything is covered. Don't know how much the Korda stuff is.

Sorry what's DP in post #6?
And how much would a bag cost for the Defiant system from Army Andy?
Does anyone also know what the turnaround normally is for the defiant pods. And have people gone for the Titanium or the carbon (apart from weight, is there much difference in stability).
Sorry for all the questions.

I have had titanium and now titanium/carbon both as stable as eachother.The Army Andy bag I had made for mine was £40 or £45 I think and it is quality.If you look in the reviews section there is a thread with pics of one,I have the centre bar clipped to the bottom of the case via buckles.I take the buzzbars out when I get fishing,screw on the central bar and its ready to go in seconds.

What he said! Thanks Bradders. You won't get an off the shelf bag, but who wants one when you can have one exactly how you want it from Andy.
