Has anyone tried the carbon upper and lower shafts from Coiltek? are they stiffer that the original SD 3 piece shafts?

Gday Jeff,
I have the Coiltek carbon fibre upper shaft on my detector ATM. They are about 3 inches longer than the minelab uppers and have a slight bit of flex to them. Much lighter and any weight loss means less arm fatigue when out swinging.
