    I have tried one set of Cyber Natural and it's a very great string in terms of control or everything. But it broke only in my forth match (app. 8 hours)....

    I probably won't try Cyber Natural anymore considering the durability and cost.

    But again, it's actually a great string and i would recommend to those who can afford it.

    From the stats, it looks like a pretty decent string, however, its cost is very very high and it is 4X+ than BG-65:mad:

    www.badminton.net has it for $15, vs $5 for BG65. Just 3X, but bad enough. :eek:

    I bought my BG-65 under $3 and compare this with cyber100, which is $15+.

    It's actually (to me) 5X !!:mad:

    Yes the Yonex Cyber Natural 100 is way too expensive. The best price I can get is HK90 (US$11.50). Compared with the BG85, which I can get at HK$27 (US$3.50), there is no way I am going for this Cyber stuff.

    It is one of the most expensive strings i ever used. It is a very good string. Good control and power..but not much resilience. Mine last unusually long. around 2 months of regular play. And i strung it as 29lbs.

    I had a pack lying around for quite a while, and when I broke a string last Monday I sent my racquet off with the CBG-100 to give it a go.
    I'll report back when I get it back and my ankle heals

    Finally got round to playing with it.
    On a Carlton Airblade AS-Ti at 24lb
    Not impressed.
    Nothing in particular feels wrong or bad, but nothing special either.
    I'll give it more time...

    The problem with the CBG 100 is that you have to give it some time.. its like needed some warmups b4 the full potential emerge.
