I would like a new LN release, but I really have my doubts about that. The 2nd gen rackets are hardly available (no European shop has any but the N50II and N90II) and there have been no rumors or any pics of pros testing their new stuff...I guess they're gonna take at least a few months to bring out new top rackets. Better for my wallet anyway
Was in a shop yesterday looking at LN N series racket and realize not all N series have serial number on it, only 3 letter is engrave on the shaft near the cone area. How can we tell they are real or fake?
Personally I think if they come out with new rackets, will probably be during some sort of tournment in China or for the Olympics next yr...
On the price tag there's a serial number, you have to scratch it free. If you want, you can verify that serial# on the LN website-
i also happen to see this 3 letters on the shaft. the seller said it was produced recently, while rackets with 6 letters serial were produced quite a while ago. Anyway, i insisted to pick the 6 letters serial because they'll be replaced soon by new 3-letter serial numbers.
Have anyone here bought the N90 national team racket? I mean the one which Lin Dan use in his game. I checked badmintonshoponilne now have this product on sale. I have seen a picture on badmintoncn.com and the pepople shows the real China team racket actually have a china team logo paint on the handle of the racket.
To all singapore brothers and sisters, have you all been to safra tampines sports shop? I saw li ning rackets there selling very cheap. Is it original?
IF safra sell Li ning rackets cheap, do they issue warranty for sale of racket. if a shop is found selling fake racket, we can bring it to consumer case fight for our right.
My N70II code is under the plastic wrapper on the grip handle instead of the carboard backing but my N90II and N50II code is on the back of cardboard
I'm thinking to buy another Lining rackets. Currently i am very comfortable & OK with N50 gen 1, although i find it lack of power (the head feels very light for me but the stiffness is OK) compared to my previous Kumpoo Powershot 2300Hexagon (Bonsaak Ponsana's racket). Any suggestion which of the N series has closest feeling & specs to Kumpoo 2300H ?? I never try Yonex racket other than Carbonex series so can't really compare to Yonex. I've got Victor BS11 (4U) & Spira21 (3U) but at last i found none of them are like my lovely Kumpoo 2300H (finally R.I.P after 2 long years of action) I was thinking to have N90 (should i buy gen 1 or 2?) but many reviews say it is tiring & exhausting to constantly using it while i always play 2 hours, 4x a week, each with only few minutes break. I play double, mixed double, & single occasionally. Drive, control, drop-shot, net play, and defense are my strong points (N50 gen 1 covers all these) while my smashing attacks aren't strong enough thus i need a racket to boost the power, more or less like Kumpoo 2300H did. Thank you in advanced for any suggestion.
Jackie, I think you have used the most N series rackets among all of us. So, from the N series rackets that you used before only, can you rank the softest shaft to the stiffest shaft? thanks
