            if you contact stan and take the rod over he will adives you on rings for your rod
            it will depend on what your budget is for new rings.

              been quoted from £50 plus rings depends on what I want done and which rings I choose I dont really have a budget but just cant seem to find much info on what rings people are using I was thinking about minima 4 and a diamite tip ring

                I personally can't stand the minimas or diamite tip rings but each to their own!

                Got kwags on a couple of my rods and I really like them. The stainless steel ones aren't that bad price wise.

                I would just give Stan a buzz and see what he advises if your not fussed either way.

                      Why don't you just replace the bottom ring yourself? The bottom ring doesn't see any weighty action. 5 quid off ebay for the ring, some nylon thread and modellers enamel and job is done.
