    sauce pan is heavier - gives more exercise! 1u is not heavy for me due to my kitchen workouts!

    oh, thought you just confused the tk600 for a different colour version of the tk6000. I've not seen this new version anywhere.

    Do you have any links for it?

    In my knowledge, the Bumblebee is really a JetSpeed 8 ST or PS, is it not...?

    Yes, it's a great racket that many people want to use. And that does not have any counter-part with the same specs in other brands (*). But they aren't producing it...
    The only explanation I see, is that Victor think that people who want to buy TK6000 will buy TK9000 anyway if the former is not available (because of reason *). And TK9000 is priced way higher, so more margin for Victor !
    But that would really be a shame...

    Maybe because no pro player use the TK6000. I personally choose the TK6000 3U over the tK9000. Great racket.

    It is a great racket indeed. Used to b my goto till the 9k came along. Nevertheless, demand for the 6k is still there...

    For those of you that have the 4U TK6000, what are the specs of your racquet (weight and bp)? My thinking is that if possible, I should go for the lightest 4U TK6000 that I can find. Hopefully it'll be closer to the 80g minimum.

    My 4U TK6000 is 91g (with Nanogy 99 string, 1 karakal grip).
    I still prefer 4U TK9000 which offer me better feel and control at the net.

    And that's a 4U? I thought 4U was between 80-84g?
