frob Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 When folded up and placed in its bag, what are the lengths of the two new Reflex models? I ask because the Rev 1.5 fits diagonally across my large luggage with very little room to spare. I'm wondering if travel with a Reflex will be an issue.

1 Dayhiker Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 Just came up from the Dungeon. Measured in it's manufactures sleeve the original Reflex is a minimum of 35.25" to maybe an additional half inch depending on how you would load it diagonally. The standard 1.5 B series measured right at 35". So if the smaller one fits your luggage the slightly longer Reflex may just squeeze in there too. The tubes are quite stiff so I don't think you could flex them a little to fit, but maybe. Sometimes I flex my dualies a little to get them to fit in a tight storage spot. The first Reflex is not radically larger than a B. SHBKF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 riffclown Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 If you are talking about the original Reflex, it will probably be an issue. If you are talking the 1.5 sizes then you should be fine BUT, you'll probably want to pack in a shipping tube to protect the springs.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that "original reflex" the XX or RX that is just over 35"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dayhiker Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 I don't know the nomenclature but it is the larger one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 monkey Posted March 29, 2017 Report Share Posted March 29, 2017 I can measure this for you from mine if need be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 frob Posted March 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 That's probably not needed. If the larger one is only a half inch larger, I'll assume the smaller one is either the same or smaller, and will travel about the same as my other 1.5 sails. Which means it's probably time for the "shut up and take my money!" meme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 frob Posted April 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Went with the RX, the smaller one. It fits the same as the 1.5's. Thanks again for the info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
