Hi ~ skylinegtr34

For Rm200 and below, if you wanna get Yonex , i think can option for MusclePower series 30 and below or the Ti series Ti-3 and below.
Hope this helps.

cheers,

bros, so muscle power mostly for attacking ? and Ti series is for what ya? sorry coz im serous noob in choosing a racket

Hi ~ skylinegtr34,

Sorry.
I also not sure if Muscle Power is for attacking or defence.
But if you really interested , go to this link:-

cheers,

okay thx so much bro for the assisting

I suggest lower end Muscle Power series (below 30) also, try MP25 Power and MP27.

If you willing to fork a bit more than RM 200, you can consider Armotec 300, cheapest Japan-made Armotec. Hock Eng Sports in Seksyen 15, Bandar Baru Bangi quote me around RM 210 for this one. You also can consider AT 250 and AT 150 also, since it's Taiwan-made and under RM 200.

There are a number of newer under RM 200 Yonex as well like the single digit MP series and NC Tuff series. You might saw it at Yonex stalls during World Championship that day

btw, how much does a yonex racket cost now?

Yonex ?
If i not mistaken is from $50 to $1000++ also got
depends on the models geh ~

1000+? What model is that? I believe Nanospeed 9000 list price 749.90 only weh.

it's at the third floor i think...the previous shop there was a digi center ..
above the QQ cut that floor...
theres this package there now...for RM199..u can get
A.Dchamp(a clone of yonex but i suppose is a high quality one) Armortec 900 Power/Technique with Shoes
B.Dchamp(a clone of yonex but i suppose is a high quality one) Armortec 900 Power/Technique with string, shuttlecock n 1 more item which i forgot..
he sells other brands of racquets there also including yonex...well..about the price i'm nt too sure thou..

bro thx so much
but issit possible to tell me where is seksyen 15? bangi is near kajang ? and bro, Nanospeed Series > Armotec > Muscle power? thanks

There's a map here (scroll down to the bottom of the post): http://multiplay.lowyat.net/2007/08/17/cho...otie-or-racing/
The shop are roughly at the same area.

If you want huge selection, you got to visit Pertama Complex then. I believe Racket World and Etakoh are the most popular one. Meanwhile, I usually go to AJ Racket Mart and GV Sports at Puchong. These two shops very near MBA hall, very hard to miss. Located near Giant Puchong Puteri.

NC Tuff is the low end entry model of Nanospeed series. Got two models:
NC Tuff 8: http://www.yonex.com.tw/badminton_ns_tuff_8.asp
NC Tuff 9: http://www.yonex.com.tw/badminton_ns_tuff_9.asp

About which series is the best, it's purely subjective as each series have it's own characteristic due to the technology put in the rackets. Try reading this guide: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/sho...ead.php?t=21851 , I'm sure it will be helpful.

Clone doesn't mean fake Yonex. The racket have similiar characteristic with the Yonex racket they tried to copy but use their own brand.
Meanwhile, fake Yonex is a racket with Yonex brand but obviously not a real Yonex racket.

whoat thanks for those links and ur useful information
anyway are you the one that play NFS chapree? M1 team?

No lah, all read from BadmintonCentral one. I'm very very very n00b.
I'm currently using Carlton Powerflo 807 Wide.

I think I know what racket it is with that price tag, but it's was loooong time ago. Nowadays, it's cheaper.

No problem
Yeah, that's me. But I already quit M1 last year.

Thanks for sharing
