Re: anyone selling a slx or very similar

sorry if i seem presistent over this, cant seem to make my mind up!

tlwcs, how big is your tubeless main pole now,
if i understand right your advising that the slx would be better then the extreme, i already have a 47 extreme i know they are weakly built absoultly no way id get a extreme 25 as a bread and butter pole.

what i was asking is out of a SLX 25 and a tubeless 25 what would you get?

FFS, I can't help you  ;D
I have always used an 18' slx with a 30' slx on the van for the windows that were just out of the 18 reach.
3 months ago i bought the extreme 22', an amazing pole, but just a bit too delicate for everyday domestic, IMO I saw the tubeless range and for the money thought I would give the 22' a go making my extreeme the spare pole and the 18' now available to sell. I also had the 30 slx converted to the tubeless system.
Which would I advise you to buy? I can't tell you. The tubeless was delivered Xmas eve and the slx was converted last Monday.
I don't start back until tomorrow so have not used the Ex-ceed pole
You are a Gardiners customer and know about their customer service, Steve at Ex-ceed is venturing into the pole market and has come up with a pole to challenge the SLX range, again IMO. The Aqua-dapta is rated and if the tubeless system keeps the back of the van drier, then its a winner in my eyes.
I will give a review after a week or two of the ex-ceeds daily use.
Sorry I can't be any more help but I did respond initially because you said you needed a pole for tomorrow.

hi pal think your gonna find majority of people will say slx not just because they love the gardiner gear but its been tried and tested and you know what your getting with Alex, the exceed is a new pole and only a few people are using them at the moment, ive heard nothing but good things about them, the only negative thing ive seen a few times is the blue pole hose being crap, anouther thing to consider is long term wear on them how well they last, only time will tell from the guys who have bought them to hear feedback but i cant see there being any worse or better than gardiner if they pretty similar although im not sure if they are different carbon construction to gardiner as his poles are sort of wrapped?
the exceed looked cheap a few weeks ago but whether theyve upp'ed the prices on the new website im not sure and as somone else said you get a aquadaptor but no brush, maybe they could do them cheaper if you didnt want that?
im definately going to consider an exceed in the future as ive only just bought a new slx so i will be keeping a close eye on comments about this new pole as time goes on but im more than happy with my slx for now it just does the top i need it too but im making it tubeless too myself to see how i'd get on with a similar hose setup to exceed.

Good post, I wondered why they had used a blue hose.
There are a couple of things I will talk to Steve about and that was one of them.
