My new BK NanoFire just arrived in the mail today, yay me!
Unfortunately, it's going to be a while before I get to actually test it out, meaning no review - just thought I'd share some pics and general first impressions.
Incase anyone in the UK is interested, I got it from blackknightuk.co.uk, for 39.99GBP.
Specs
weight: 80g
balance: 295mm unstrung (my own measurement - BK don't specify)
flex: medium-stiff (BK state rigidity factor of 85)
max tension: 24lbs
First Impressions
This racket is very very shiny. I'm not sure photos really do it justice.
The grip was different from what I was expecting. Instead of the "competition" grip with raised ridges, it was a more normal grip, albeit with a feel almost like blu-tac.
It came with a very good quality racket cover, with a detachable shoulder strap that's actually big enough for me to use (which is a first).
Just can't wait to try it out now...
