    Hello all -

    This might not be the right place to post this but since this is also about stringing so anyway...

    Have anyone restrung/seen or used Carlton MegaFlex Tour? I was asked by one player to restring this racket at 24 lbs but strangely I couldn't find any spec, specifically tension range, either on the racket itself nor on Carlton's website. I have asked Carlton but even they didn't know anything about this model either.

    My concern is that according to this website it seems Carlton's rackets generally have low tension (mostly <20 lbs.) and statistically speaking I don't think it's wise to apply 24 lbs on Carlton's racket unless I have the spec for this racket.

    For safety I have restrung this MegaFlex with 18 lbs, but does anyone have any info/thought on this racket?

    Or, if you receive a racket with no details/info like this case how would you decide the tension to use?

    Regards,
    Sam
