This is a great addition to the rod quiver. Its perfect for attaching to the handlebars of the e-bike with other kit to take out around river beds and lake shores. Easily fits attached to the side of a lightweight backpack when the bike wont go any further. Only small issue is that when the butt is switched around, the handle can turn a little bit after a few casts so needs to be re-centered. A good friend of mine bought one for his son in the US and he loves it.
