    If urgently, get a new racket but not another FB. It is normal to claim warranty that take 2 whole months

    Broke my 4-mth old 5U version of the FB. My guess is that I hit the bird on the rim and it snapped (cos I only realised that it was broken only after winning the rally). Lol!

    Sadly, this racket was in pristine condition -- no scratches, dings, paint chips or clashes. It mysteriously broke.. :(

    A LOT of those grommets look like they have been destroyed. Are you sure your stringer knew what he was doing?
