They look quite similar to the Cadence rods.

If the prices are kept similar to the series 7 range I think cadence have got a problem!

If the new range is similar to the Series 7 rods, they'll largely revolve around commercial pool fishing and light specialist stuff. I doubt that Cadence, rooted firmly in the old style "match" categories, will be especially concerned.

If that's what Series 7 rods are and these are the replacement any similarity with Cadence is purely cosmetic.

I think they're doing 13 and 14ft float rods which will most likely be suited to both still and running water.
If I was to be in the market for a rod in that price range then I would be taking a closer look at them for sure.

I've seen or heard nothing to that effect, only that they are replacing Series 7 rods. As it stands, the (non-commie orientated) Series 7 float rods are the 13' Silverfish Float, 13' Power Carp Waggler and 13' Tench & Specialist. Time will tell, but I doubt it's going to be anything I, or Cadence, will be worrying about either way.

Check out the list of rods in the range at the end of the video.

No idea how the series 7 tench or carp waggler feel but if they feel anything like any of drennans other tench rods they'd be good for trotting, at least for me anyhow. I use the super tench rod and it's great for trotting for all species of fish that I catch.

I've not said you or cadence will be worried...?

I know you've not said I'd be worried, but what does the following mean then?

I'd say it's pretty obvious what it means.
A major tackle company brings out a new range of rods at the same sort of price bracket as cadence rods. This new range of rods will be easily accessible for anglers to look at as they will be in the majority of tackle shops.
I would say these vertex rods are going to swallow up an awful lot of the sales that cadence are targetting. So, i'm not saying they'll be worried, but I would say that's a problem for cadence.
