    Since Yonex put letters, we have SP, DK, T, etc.

    Does anybody know what MU stands for? It's on my cab9tour (that one that I just cracked) (I think 26lbs is too much for the frame)

    26lbs sounds a little extreme. The tightest tension i use is 22lbs. On my Ti-10

    not sure, but if you are on the internet, a .mu address is for Mauritus. (similar as .hk is for Hongkong)

    Not much. I used it because it was cheap and as an interim racquet until finding a racquet that I really liked (hence the cab 22 which came out about 9months later). Used the cab22 all the time since then which must be about two years now.

    cab9 can take 26 lbs but it must be strung correctly. Aluminium is unforgiving in repetitive shape changes from different stringers.

    It's the tour version(all graphite), not the old aluminium frame.

    oh. But i think at high tension, stringer skills determine the longevity of a racket.

    Very true, and since it was me doing the stringing (after a 5.5 yr break), an unfamiliar machine and only two hours sleep the night before...................no need to explain anymore!!
