Manticore lower rods coming soon...

[sgoss66]

Hey all!

I am in the final stage of testing the new Minelab Manticore lower rods. I anticipate availability starting in about 3 weeks (mid-November). I will have both lower rods available, AND two-piece lower-shaft assemblies (middle section AND lower rod, connected with one of my proprietary, premium-quality cam locks).

The lower rods will be available in black at first, with tubes having the same matte carbon-fiber finish, and red "warning line," as the stock lower rods. The "standard" length will be roughly 23 1/4", with a "tall-man" version also available at roughly 27 3/4". I will also have them available in the near future in three colors -- red/black, green/black, and blue/black.

Pricing will be $79 for the black lower rods ($89 colored), and $119 for the black two-piece lower-shaft assemblies
($129 colored), and the coil bolt WILL be included.

So, with the Minelab accessory coils apparently available soon, spare lower rods for these coils will now be available as well, at https://www.stevesdetectorrods.com

Looks pretty well designed Steve, as usual! Hope you are right about the coils, not sure what their thoughts are about releasing them in Europe before the US?

Jeff,

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm not too sure what is going on with Minelab and these coils...but...I rarely understand the what's and why's of what Minelab does, or doesn't do!

Looks Great now all we need is a 6" coil for the Manticore

I prefer the smaller coils when hunting in the water just easier to swing.

Mark,

It makes sense that the smaller coils my exhibit less hydrodynamic drag...
