    i had the assumption that the specs of the T200 is within 88g and 285 +- 5 BP...

    as printed on the shaft itself..

    is this what you meant?

    i measure it roughly by first balancing the shaft on the tip of my finger, and take note of the corresponding position on the shaft indicated by the tip of the finger. Then i use a ruler to measure the length from the tip of the handle to this point, and that would be the BP.

    on wed he told me to bkful when using as the racket is not his
    then on thurs he said..bkful as in with the racket..string break nvm, he can claim WTF!!!
    if he told me that, i think i already broke the string that night hahaha
    besides that, i was also a bit set back coz i hv a frenly around the corner and i dun wanna injured myself with such high tension..maybe after this :D
    where u strung ur racket? sometimes stringer dun service their machine so 22 might not feel 22..i guess those respectable ones hv more accuracy
    but string should not lose so much tension so fast..unless u play 5-6 hours non stop then no comment :rolleyes:

    like i said..IMO it's good for both singles and doubles
    BP mentioned in the spec is without string and original grip i think

    slightly is ok imo..we also prone to gross error in measuring..hahaha :D unless we have a special equipment with high measuring accuracy to see the balance point..if it obviously unbalance then thats a dif story..

    err..im not saying im so high level but i felt the difference between my n900p and my fren's unit. mine is obviously lighter altho both are 4u..he has a slightly little bit thicker grip than mine but i don't think such minor minor difference will affect the feeling so obviously..so it's either mine is off-spec or his unit is.

    i've roughly measured my bp..270 with string and not very thick grip

    I bought once from him. No, case is not included. Perhaps he wants to reduce shipping cost or the racket itself come w/o case.
