    I'm buying a reel soon and i am not sure what to buy - 1x200m reel or 2x100m reels. The price difference is only $2 more the 2x100m reels. So is it better to 2x100m reels or 1x200m reel?

    If the difference is only $2, I'd say get the 2x100m, why? Cause what if u end up wanting to try other strings, or you find something that you like even more, than you can sell the other one if it hasn't been opened yet.

    Been using NBG98 red on my Arc10 for almost 3 weeks(strung at 24/26.5lbs). All I can say is NGB98 is very durable for a .66mm string. With the amount of mishits I did, if it's a BG66, I would gone through at least 3 sets of strings already. Now going to 4th weeks and counting. :)

    But I find the string a bit too pricey. Will go back to my good ol cheap and nasty BG65 after it breaks. :rolleyes:

    Yup, the string is pricey.. but its good. I would replace it with bg66 if im on a budget.

    RED nbg98

    I've tested nbg98 on a new ARC10. (27/29) I think buying a reel won't be a bad decision. It's a bit easier to string due to its thickness.

    It absorps shocks thus I can not feel as much as I hit with bg80. But it is better/harder feeling than nbg95.

    The red one looks very nice on ARC10.

    Just received my 200m reel of NBG98 from shuttle-house today with a few other stuff. The actual size is smaller than what i thought it would be.

    I forgot to mention that it took 6 days to arrive so that was faster than last time of 8 days.

    Just want to check with you guys .... I try to string NBG98 on my old Ti-10 (7-8 years old racket) and it looks got a bit crack on the top of the racket.
    My tension : 26 x 28 lbs.
    So it is common ?
    Or my tension is too high for Ti-10 ?
    Because some people told me, Yonex racket cannot bear high tension one.
    Thanks .......

    What I have just got is still JP version. Still in JP language at the back of the package.
    I think it still JP version, but now sunrise has carrying over this string into their product line.

    I am also paying around that price $11

    In your mind
    SP strings exist. Isn't it just the same as the distribution of rackets? badmintonshoponline sells SP and JP strings. There are just some special releases for JP, like BG-66 Sharp and BG-65 Power.

    There is no NBG98 in SP or CH code now, only JP.
