The new stiffness indicators on the website seem to say that the tk9000 is stiffer than the tk7000s yet the 9000 is only 3/5 compared to the 4/5 on the 7000s. Does anybody know which one is supposed to be more accurate?
The photoshopping of the racket in that middle picture is the second worst I've ever seen in a baddy photo.
How do I have to read this scale? *lol* It's stated as very stiff in the scale, but the specs tell you it's only 3/5 in stiffness

I can't figure that one out. I suggest somebody has made a mistake. To me Victor's biggest weakness is the marketing of their excellent products. Poor graphics aside, at least they are producing decent looking kit year on year. Still not sure about the shoes though. Paul www.badminton-coach.co.uk
@Paul: Interesting thing you've noted in the LF topic. There is a LF 7350 coming in red? This will be pretty interesting since 7300 is already a good racket for its weight. A model between 7300 and 7400 would be nice since the latter one was too head heavy for my liking. You have any notice from other new models for Europe coming next year?
Accordaz Europe will have Thruster 7000S, MX90, Jetspeed 8's, MX80N and I can't remember whether there's a cheaper Thruster or cheaper Meteor. We will also have a fantastic range of clothing including shirts currently worn by Koreans and Ahmad and Natsir. We have so much good stuff to look forward to! Paul www.badminton-coach.co.uk
Yup ... TK-9000 breaks the records as the highest RRP rackets sold in China (1,760 CNY). Formerly BS10 and BS11 hold the records at 1,680 CNY (since 2011). If I'm not mistaken, MX90 is the second highest, which is set at the RRP price of 1,690 CNY. Ah .. yes... this is also correct...
Maybe you read the 3/5 indication first as the main stiffness, and the bar tells us how stiff in the 3/5 range it is. We all know there is quite a range of stiffness from racquets that say 3/5.. perhaps the bar is to narrow down the exact stiffness. Which seems redundant if that's the case.. why not just use the bar system and get rid of the 0/5 system?
http://www.victorsport.com.cn/product_data.php?id=q9SEf6XzPCdZUQMNg6XzPhd3VRD951 the head shape on this mx80N looks completely different. probably another photoshop malfunction ?
MX80N looks good. I can't decide which CW looks better. I love the red black white gold one, but the MX80N caught me, too. If in EU they sell the MX80N only as 3U/G5 instead of 3U/G4 I will skip it. Otherwise their is nothing which holds me back buying a few ones to stock up.
The overall color of MX80-N looks too similar with MX90. Still prefer the old version. Notice the wording Peak Waves @ 12 o'clock is missing the double side "X". Juz like MX90
Yeah I really like the MX80N. 'Top Players' already use the MX80, so it doesn't really matter to them if it's just an aesthetic change. If they like it, they'll toss away their MX80's to the crowd when they win, and ask for MX80N's ^^
