    6.5 - 7k for x fire from the shop not sure where you got those numbers tbh. Bhub had x speed for 5.5 for awhile but the least you can get it for atm here is 6.5k

    Do these rackets have a longer handle / shorter shaft? Also, are they 675mm in length?

    You can buy XS and XF or any other Ashaway racket from sportsmax chennai.
    They are the only Ashaway distributor in india giving good discount.
    I also bought XS and XF 2 from them.

    Looking to finally replace my NS 9000 type X. Anyone know if the X-fire be a similar to the NS 9000? Debating between the X-fire and Duora Z strike.

    no, its not as stiff as ns9900x.
    that was a benchmarked stiffness.
    ashaway is not as stiff. it plays less stiff in real conditon!
