there is a forza starpower 10000 that fit your specification, it's light and manuverable, and yet power is still very good. There is a review of this racket in the Misc./Unlisted racket section. Read the july and august 2001 reviews
try mp77... its 90-95 g
but it produces a hell amount of power
All Forza model are 3U, which means they weigh about 85-98 g. This is lighter than most Yonexes, which are mainly 2U (90-94 g).
Here are a few Forza models I've tested that I would characterize as powerful: Ti Tech 600, Ti Tech 1200, Ti Tech 1600, Ti Tech 1800. I use the 1600 myself. It's more or less identical to the 1800, except for the graphics (and price). The 1200 is also similar to the 1600 & 1800, but a little less stiff. The 600 has a traditional oval head, and regular length. It has a triple-taper head with some extra weight at the top (a similar design to the Carlton Airblade 900) which gives a little extra help in smashes and drives. If you're a power freak I'd say go for the 600, which is also very good value for money.
Good luck.
I would recommend the Kevlar 800 SQ which has tons of power and is lighter than Yonex racquets. I think they're available at www.forzacanada.com
Good Luck.
You could try the Ti Swing Power SA. Light and powerful. Just need the extra speed =)
