    It better not be KG! FYI 81-85g is the range that the manufacturer states. It just means that they aimed for 83g +/-2g variation.

    I bought the same Racquet recently. I was confused it with [K] Slam as which to buy. On the manuf site they said Fantom As Medium Flex, but in Shaft it says Flex. What ever I couldn't find any more threads about [K] Fantom and i wonder why? What you feel about your Fantom? Mine got strung at 24lbs and played 4 hours last weekend and it is ok for my ability. My past racquet is Carbonex 21sp which is oval and stiff.
    My new racquet pic are in the below links and i want to here more about Fantom.
