    Hello, i recently just purchased a ti-10 (new color) and when i swing the rackets or bend it slightly, there is a clicking noise around the cone. What should i do? what will happen to the racket? anyone else have this problem?
    Plus i am a hard hitter if that helps.
    thanks

    If newly purchased with warranty, try to exchange from the shop or Yonex CAN. There're ways to fix if yourself, but if under warranty, exchange a new one is the best solution. ;)

    agree with lazybuddy, this is a common problem with yonex racquets and its basically the wood under the cone cracked. Theres an entire thread on it if you'd like to read about it.

    Hey..... it happens to me also.
    but mine, you have to bend it hard.
    And guess, it is also Ti-10 but old model.
    for regular play I couldn't hear the sound.

    The longer you wait, the less chance you get it replaced. Try to do it asap. ;)
