Can't comment on the Fox as I've never even had a wiggle. You do see a fair few of them on the banks though so they can't be all bad. As for the Korum Neoteric Twin Tip, pretty good rod for the money, especially if you can find them for less than a ton. The 1.75lb tip does for general purpose barbelling and the 2.2lb tip gives you the option of using it as a flood rod or for chucking big feeders on big rivers like the Trent.
 
I agree with Chris regarding the Korums. I have a pair that I got second of ebay for about a oner. Very good allround rods. I use mine with the 1.75 for barbel, I use the 2.2 tips for heavier duties such as small lake carping and flood water river fishing. For the money a very good versatile rod.
