    Hey,

    Anyone could recommand me a Fleet racket?? Are they Fleet rackets with Isometric head shape??

    I like to smash, so maybe a head heavy and a stiff one should be good.

    *I would prefer one with Iso head shape

    I have armorace 800 offensive and nano.s 7999, overall i like the nano 7999, is a flexible racket and can produce great power with just the wrist alone.

    But as you said you like the head heavy and stiff type, the armorace 800 offensive is quite head heavy and stiff.

    For me , as in my own experience. Stiff rackets produce more power if you have the strength as in like full arm blast.

    For a flexible racket, its easier for me to wrist smash.

    FT85, FT95 and Ti130 from Fleet are all ISO. The FT85s is a stiff racquet, where as the 85x is softer.

    In my opinion, those are only cosmetics paint on the racket. i highly doubt that they have nanotechnology.

    Or you could google up their website and see what they claim

    "Materials - High modulus graphite & ultra titanium. Nanotech Epoxy Resin (N.E.R.)"

    i have a nano power 9000 with Fleet logo at the handle end(butt) but when i checked at the website posted by Neil it says Nano Pro 9000?! could it be that my nano power 9000 is a fake?(are there fake Fleet rackets?) anyway, my racket is kinda stiff and quite long too! head light and the head shape is in-between iso and oval (funny) but i guess its a little bit more of an iso shape

    I would guess probably not fake.
    There could be different racquet names in different regions, or it could be someone typed the name in wrong on the website, or it is a slightly older model.

    I dont think anyone would try to make fake fleet racket as the demand is not as high as yonex, and the original price of the racket is also quite cheap.

    its good for defence because its head light and decent smashing power probably due to its stiffness and great in control!

    and maybe neil is right, the one in the website could be a little bit older model because the seller told me its (nano power 9000) one of their latest model of Fleet rackets...thanks!

    based on web page http://www.yehlex.co.uk
    Fleet is a product of Yehlex ?
    And it come from Taiwan, right?

    Can any one compare Fleet and Proace racket?
    Is Proace racket popular in Europe?

    Thanks
