    Hello this is my first post on here. I am currently using a Voltric 80 and need a second racket but can't afford another VT80 at the moment. The season is about to start and I need a back up in case of string break or worse racket breaking.

    Can anyone give me an alternative that is similar to the VT80 that is around £70-75.

    I have tried the VT5 & VT7 and have struggled to get along with. I liked my friends Victor MX60 but that is out of my price range at the current time.

    An suggestions very welcome.

    You could consider getting a used VT80. The old Armortec 900 Technique also felt pretty similar in my opinion.

    Will have to see if I can get hold of a AT900T then, I've tried the 900p that was a nice racket but shops not selling them anymore.
    Thanks for your advice

    What about an apacs lethal 70 or tantrum 300?
    You should get one of those within your budget.

    The lethal 70 and tantrum 300 are alot better rackets than the z spark, I would say they are on par with your vt80 in terms of build quality.
