    I'm slightly bit confused on whether the diablo option on the 2086 is useful for badminton strings? Also, what is the point of the diablo anyways?

    I just purchased the mutual power titan7700 and want to order the 2086 as well but not sure about this option.

    Anyone help me

    No, now the option is to pay for it, note the picture.

    But what IS the diablo? Do you use it Kwun?

    ps: you are the all-knowing master! :D

    i don't use mine because my machine is so tiny it doesn't fit.

    the diablo allows the gripper to grip the string more gently, causing less potential damage to the string.

    interesting why it's an option on the tennis-head website...so the final consensus, add diablo or not?

    Wise2086 will come with Diablo by default.
    I order directly from Herb Wise.

    For all UK-interesteds, the Diabolo is, I believe, a cost-option from WD; it should come as standard, though, I agree.
