Our rod tube, all Epic. Yep, because we just can't bear to do what everybody else does we had to put the Epic spin on our rod tubes. Hand rolled from cross weave fiberglass, our Epic tube is incredibly strong yet decidedly feather like in the weight department. Finished in a tough clear gloss top coat. It will not ding & dint like the other guys el-cheapo extruded aluminium tubes, nor is it so damn noisy! - these babies can roll and slide around in the back of your truck without you having to turn up the Creedence to drown out the din. (Creedence should be on full V's regardless btw) Our hand fitted aircraft grade Aluminium end caps are deep anodized then laser engraved with our classic Epic logo. Why you may ask? - because it's cool we reply. The kicker - you know those crap rubber washers found under tube end caps? - the ones that probably aren't there anymore because they got squeezed out, perished and split from screwing on the end cap? We don't have 'em. Our exceedingly clever designer gave this seemingly minor problem a lot of thought and put together end caps with a recessed rubber O-ring - you know, just like O-rings are supposed to work… Now, wouldn't you have though someone would have come up with that before. Soon, everyone will be doing this... (Thank you Stephen) Pay attention up there in the back!   made in New Zealand Got questions? - Drop us a line, we'd love to hear from you.
