maybe but i want to try it

**bakulaw** · 04-26-2012, 09:46 PM

hi, does RKEP have a local retailer here in South Korea? I want to avoid the shipping charges, et al. if possible.

I'm interested in getting a PRO 6000. Care to compare its stiffness with the ARC7?
I understand that the balance of the PRO 6000 can also be tweaked. Please recommend a configuration. I'd like it to be slightly head heavier than the ARC7. (maybe similar balance to an ARC 10/8DX).

Thanks. Appreciate the help.

Hi all,

Where can I get the RKEP PRO9000 in Malaysia (KL / Selangor)? What is the selling price in RM?

I am pretty sure the only way you can get it is shipped from Eric, no local dealers anywhere yet. Price is 100 USD, dunno what that is in RM.

Wow, this is a bizarre situation. Kinda like walking into a bar and asking if they have anything to drink!

I bought this racket 2 days ago and play it about 3 set with this rkep pro 9000 and it will definitely be my starter racket ,replacing my n55 flame ,i got it with 86g weight and BP 291 and strunged with polyfibre proforce x@30 lbs ,the manuver and the power is awesome ,but sadly in my 2nd set i got a paintchip ,hard crash with my partner ,lucky it didnt broke , once again nice work bro for making this racket ,cheers

Does the PRO6000 have the "clearcoat" for better paint durability (similar to what Victor did with the 2nd gen Braveswords)?

currently i am using mx60 and arc9dx and hate arc9dx. only time i use it when i am playing precise shots. so i wanted something like bs10 or bs12 and i thought rkep6000 will be good. but reading all the tread i wanted to go for rkep9000 but to some people specs are more likely armotec900 which i don't like and sold it. any recomendation.

got 1 green color 85g 285mm BP which will sure more suitable for your use

**Thompson** · 05-06-2012, 11:45 AM

Eric any idea when the orange more head heavy 9000 will come?

**BlueTornado** · 05-06-2012, 01:16 PM

Anyone in the Bay Area wanna do a group buy on these? There's a nice promo going on. PM me if interested.

**slice99** · 05-09-2012, 11:01 AM

I would like a white version of the 9000 without the red/orange. Adding some purple instead would be amazing imo

**BlueTornado** · 05-22-2012, 10:14 PM

I asked Eric about the RKEP Pro 6000 and he told me that it's most similar to the BS12, but slightly head heavier to get more swing power. So it sounds exactly like a BS09, confirming the reviews that stated that it's less stiff than the BS11.

j4ckie, looks like these might be some nice backups when your BS09's break!

Got my 293mm bp, 85g green Pro 9k a few days ago with 66UM 24 pounds along with my SW30. It looks really nice with green grip, I'll upload some pictures later. And darn it, just like visor I like my 9000 much better than the more expensive SW30
