    I'm currently using Yonex Cab20 with BG 80 strings. I'm going to have my racket restringed but I've no idea which string is suitable for me. I frequent hard hits. Which string model is reccomended :confused:

    Another thing, what tension is reccomended? I'm comfortable with the 22-25 range.

    Why not search the numerous detailed threads and string reviews. I believe Dinkalot has many comprehensive posts on this subjects. Further, you can check the strings that the various Yonex Pros use on the yonex website.

    If you feel BG80 is good, don't change. Others to try with less durability: BG66, BG80, SOTX Ti-1045, Tactic 0.68mm, Ashaway Micro Legend. More durability: Ashaway PowerGut65 Neon, MicroPower, Micro Legend-XL.

    bg 80 is much better then 65, unless you value durability more. i would stay with bg 80, its worth the couple extra $$ over bg 65.
    again we cannot reccomend tension, since we aren't you. if you can handle 25lbs then i'd go for that though seeing how you get more control and maybe more power if you can flex the stringbed at that range. again, its all relative.

    Yea the tension really is up to you as 25lbs is too much for me i normally use for the range of 21lbs to 23 lbs. Dinkalot has good advice there have a look..

    What's the reason that you don't like BG80? Durability? Playability? Price? :rolleyes:
