Stiffen lower shaft CZ-20/21?

[flgliderpilot]

I don't use my CZ as much as I used to now that I have the EQ800, but when I do I find the lower shaft flex absolutely horrid.

I've been thinking about epoxying a smaller diameter carbon shaft into the hole in the lower shaft to try to stiffen it up. Heck a wooden dowel and epoxy would even be better than it is now : (

I wondered if anyone had tried this? Or, if there is an affordable carbon lower shaft available which fits the stock upper shaft (which is fine) ?

I PUT GORRILLA TAPE ON MINE - it will hold in water
I put a wooden dowel in one and it put pressure on the inner wall of the tube and actually helped crack it eventually
ive cracked many lower and upper rods over the years - they wear thin and the lower will just crack - just cracked one last month
it cracked where the clip hole is - upper rods have worn super thin and crack thru all the holes - I now put tight tape between all the holes
on my uppers (I own 3 CZ21s) - uppers are harder to get than your lowers - you can always try Anderson shafts they make for CZs
think there is another company out there too
