    If Victor was smart, they would paint the BS12 KRP to whatever colour of any new racket they want to push!
    Considering that the blue BS12 is not being made anymore, they can repaint it to look like another BS a MX, or Thruster they want to push and it would sell like hot cakes since LYD uses it!

    wait what?! BS12 has been discontinued??? dude victor discontinues this racket quite quickly considered that LYD has been using it instead of his own signature racket....maybe victor is trying to push the blue BS12 whoever partners with LYD is using it together with LYD?

    Nope it can't be. MX 90 sides are primarily.black like the MX 70. I think that's the MX 80N.

    ^ Not only that but LCW can string them 40 lbs if he wanted to. Doesn't matter to him if he breaks a racket with every rally, as he can probably get as many rackets as he wish... ;)

    I string 31lbs and never broke a racket. There are warranty issues, but the rackets can take these tensions. Our coaches string about 35lbs and they break a lot of strings, but usually not the racket...

    Some people speculated about it being adidas, some said Victor....in the end, all we can do is guess. No idea why he was using a black racket. It could be a marketing thing by Li Ning to get people interested, it could be him trying not to promote Li Ning while still fulfilling his contract (having the logo on the strings and wearing Li Ning clothes/shoes),.....
    I think we'll know in2014 when he starts playing tournaments again.
