    I've been using a cab8400 with bg65 strings for a number of years, but i realized that it was starting to bend at the head. So i went to buy a new racquet, and i was faced with the choice between an Mp29 or an armortec 150 (there arent much great badminton stores where i live). I choose to buy the Mp 29...did i make a bad choice. And what is a good string and tension to string my racquet with for offensive play?

    If it makes you happy, then it was a good choice.. If not, then it was a bad choice...

    Pretty good choice as I have one and the smashing isn't too shabby.You'd need to replace strings with BG-65/80 for best performance though.

    Hi I would say BG80 tension depends very much on your level
    Think 22lbs should be OK for intermediate level

    Ahhh
    In France it's more in Kg that tensions are mesured so I'm not really sure about the odd numbers ...
    But I can't see why it can't be 22lbs which it 10Kg, have to search other threads

    Cheers
