    Dear all Cab fans,

    Pls note a new Cab 21 SP in red color has been launched on the www.bbesports.com, http://www.bbesports.com/yonex/images/racket/cab-21newc.jpg its appearance and design are similar to the new Cab 20 JP. In my opinion, this new Cab 21 SP looks quite good.

    To me, I prefer slim shaft Carbonex racket, I am now saving money for this upcoming new Cab 21, hopefully it will be available in Hong Kong soon.

    All Cab fans, Cheers !

    I get what you mean. When I saw this thread I went to the Yonex jp site and nothing was mentioned bout it.

    Hi Louis W,

    May we know if the new red Cab 21 you saw is in black, but with pattern in gold/silver and red. Is its shaft still the 7mm thin one ?

    As from the photos provided by bbesports are not very clear, so it would be great if you can describe a bit more details about the color and appearance of this new red Cab 21. Tks a lot.

    Dear all HK Cab fans,

    The new Cab 21 (red) and new Cab 20 (orange) are not available in HK at this moment.

    I have searched Mong Kok sports shops but old Cab 21 (in new yy logo) is still plentiful. Therefore, I think it will take longer time for the new Cab 21 (red) to reach HK, as stock of old Cab 21 is still widely available.

    In case any HK Cab fans see this new Cab 21 (red) available in HK, pls kindly post on this forum.

    Tks.

    Dear all Cab fans,

    Yesterday, I saw a new Cab 20 (orange) SP and a new Cab 21 (red) SP in Luxis Sports.

    New Cab 20 (orange) and new Cab 21 (red) are selling at HK$603 and HK$615 respectively.

    I had a hold of them, both seemed to be a bit lighter than the old models. The new Cab 21 (red) lets me down a bit, the color blending of black, gold and red is not as good as the old moody blue Cab 21, after all, new Cab 21 (red) gives lesser solid hand feeling than the old one, it is just my opinion. It seems these two new cab rackets are completely different rackets, though they are bearing the name as Cab 20 and Cab 21.

    I think if the new Cab 21 is launched in HK finally, the old Cab 21 would be a collection item for those Cab fans.
