Forten 65 Ti

[Scooby]

Anyone tried the above string before ? It is only 0.65mm, so the feel should be pretty good. Comments ?

Can get it string at Sportlinks (Queensway) for only $13.

Its an ok string when its new but once it gets too old, your looking at strings that have lost so much tension that its a good 5lbs or so less

[Scooby]

Thanks for the feedback Byron ! Hmm...think I will stick to BG85 for now.

Jus restring with my ISO 600 @ 24lbs....and guess what...it snap after 2 double match :( and I don't consider myself a hard hitter. Don't know why the shop guy recommend me this?

[Byro-Nenium]

Wilson, i asked about your racket string breaking to Blitz or someone but i can't remember, did the string break in the centre of the hitting surface or at the side?

[Scooby]

Oops ! My fren just send his gf racquet for restring. The racquet is a Cab 21 Special, and the tension is 23lbs ! Yikes !

I was thinking of cutting the BG68Ti (24lbs) on my MP100 and restringing with this, but I will think twice now. Reason being that BG68Ti does not give good control at all....

Thanks ! You guys potentially save me from grief !

Don't worry the Cab 21 Special can take the tension, its quite a solid racket. I have 1 and its strung with a BG-65 Ti at 23lbs

There's a mail order outlet at http://racquetstringer.tripod.com that
sells Forten and other strings. I've made a purchase from them
awhile back. For me, the Gosen GS-88 string worked out fine
at 20lbs on my Yang Yang 9000. Nice combo of power and control.

Bryo, it snap 2 string at the side, near to 3 or 9 o'clock.

Prehaps your gromments need to be changed, it may have cut the string because it might have been too old.

I've checked the place out. Pretty good to deal with.
