"To fit in the overhead storage or under your seat" I guess. A 4-peice would fit in most travel bags. I guess a 7-piece would give you more packing room for gear.
I did a trip last year where we rode dirt bikes in Colorado and fished. It was awesome! A four-piece did well and was completley adequate but a 5-7 sure would have packed up a little better. There is no way we could do it with our 2-piece rods. I could see somone on on a mountain bike wanting one. Although breaking the rod down sure would be a PIA!
