Any nice restring service which is recommended in singapore?
Because of the bad restringer i experienced in edinburgh...hopefully i can get to know some better restringer to restring my racket when i arrive singapore (will be going to singapore next week)

I string with Mr Soh at Classic Sports (+65 62538858).

There are other good stringers around but it depends on where is convenient.

Hi hi.. I am newbie in this forum...

I noticed my rackets has different nodes of string so
how many nodes is good to be used?
Can I assume good stringer will have less nodes and use machine and gauge to pull in order to get correct lbs?

Pls share your thoughts ...

Hey Stanley, believe there are good stringer in Msia and price should be cheaper right?

**smist89** · 08-21-2009, 11:48 AM

since we're on the topics of strings (or restringers) in singapore, i'd like to ask if anyone knows of any place(s) that have BG66Maxima?
i checked sportslink AMK and Sportshop AMK but they don't have said strings.

hi there...newbie to www.badmintoncentral.com. jus picked up badminton 3mths ago after a 10 yr break.

I jus had my AT600 re-stringed at Gala Sports in Q'way, with BG85, 24lbs, yesterday.

I got my AT600 there too with BG66 at 24lbs as well. Think they are pretty decent and did it in 45mins.

Was think of Chua Beng, but have to wait a few days...since i need it the same day, so went back to Gala. $18 all in...

do you mean the full 45 min was spent on the restringing? or did you leave your racket there for 45 min before you collected?

the guy there asked me to collect my racket in 45mins. when i went back in 45mins, the racket was already restringed.

so the restringing took less than 45mins. think the guy there jus want to play safe, in case he got held up by other stuff.

anyway, there's 3 guys there doing the restringing, so its quite efficient, with another 1 or 2 person looking after the store. unlike Chua Beng, only 1 guy runs the shop, including restringing...
