Busted Tip..........

It had to happen eventually, gone and broke the Avon tip of one of the Fox Barbel Duo Lite Extra. |Luckily its only a couple of inches worth but enough so when I went to rejig the first ring and reglue the tip on it wouldn`t fit......

So, does anyone know what rings they use on those rods? I need to vernier the tip up and get a new, larger diameter ring.
 
Martin, can't you put part of a quiver tip through from the inside, extend the rod back to it's original length and then put the original ring back on that?
 
Cheers Bob, I`ll have a mooch later!!

Ian, the bore is ridiculously small so I don`t know if a quiver section would have enough strength, I`ll have a look though. I would like to keep the rod the same length.........
