i have an old CabGold racquet.. many years ago liaoz. about 8 years? it's has a T-joint joining both the shaft and frame together. there are two colours to it: pure gold colour or pure silver. mine is the latter one. but i seldom used it. coz not used to the feel. now more of like a display racquet (pretty vase)... but sadly, the paint started to peel off even though i seldom use it (but why? the workmanship?), though there's a few paint chips too. does anyone of u over here keep this racquet, used it before, seen it before, tried it before? izzit worth keeping or this is just a piece of white elephant?
I know someone who used to use the gold version of this racquet and he was great with it. He did however grow up in Indonesia and used it virtually his whole career. I personally think it's too heavy, not enough power for it's weight, etc, but depends what you like. If you like a Cab 8 try the gold.
