    Hi Andro,

    The website is new so no need to pai seh, i just found out about it 2 days back also....as for Proace racquets, they should be out of your budget also.....so perhaps you might want to consider either:

    1. Apacs Nanopower 7000/8000 - head light
    2. Apacs Nanospeed 9000 - between head light and even balanced.
    3. Apacs Nano 202/303/404/505/606/707/808/909 - head light
    4. Apacs Powerconcept 998/1050/1080 - between head light and even balanced.

    They should be around 50 - 65SGD....dont come with a bag.

    Other brands you can consider is RSL Millenium 6 series. They have a few models namely Nova 6130/6160/6170....should cost around 60 - 70SGD...with a very nice bag included...

    Regards,
    vince

    Vince,

    I found most Apacs rackets shorter in length than Yonex rackets. do you know of any Apacs racket which has the same length as Yonex rackets?

    Hi Sealman,

    So far i have only come across one particular model, it is the Apacs Nanospeed 9000 which has a length of 675mm. The rest i have come across or played with before are usually 668mm or 670mm even though the Apacs website may have stated them to be 675mm e.g. the Armourpower series.

    For pics of the Apacs Nanospeed 9000, click the following link:

    These models should be below 50SGD.

    - Apacs Powerconcept 1050/1080 (between head light and even balanced)
    - Apacs Armourpower 200 (head heavy)

    The models are listed in ascending order of the approximate price. For exact prices better you check it out with a shop nearest you.

    It also depends on whether you want Yonex strings or not, if you just take the Apacs strings that they give you, it should comfortably be below 50SGD. But if you insist on Yonex strings then it will cost abit more la....and may exceed 50SGD.

    Regards,
    Vince

    Vince,
    Actually i thought PowerConcept 1050/1080 should be pricer than NanoSpeed series....
    maybe i will also considering this model instead...
    do u think is worth to buy this model?
    I prefer head light racket because i use my friend racket which is quite light when i swing the racket...I think is Carbonex 8100Light.

    Powerconcept is an older model, so it's cheaper. I think it is a very playable racquet but you might not be used to it since it is between headlight and even balanced. I have used them and find them nice to use but have moved on to using slightly head heavy racquets because i find them lacking in the power department. But for doubles and defensive play they are rather decent racquets for their price. No harm trying it since sometimes you have to do trial and error to find a suitable racquet for yourself.

    Regards,
    vince

    ok i'm getting confused now.
    what's the difference between these models, because i've been to the apacs website but there isn't enough explanation:

    Armor Musle
    Armor Power
    Muscle Striker
    Nano Power
    Nano Pro
    Nano Speed
    Power Concept

    anybody care to enlighten us?

    Can anyone recommend any Apacs racket? I have a son aged 13 and has been learning badminton for more than a year. His coach suggested that he upgrade his racket to Nano 8000 or Powertech 1010 cos they are cheaper than YY. What are the features of these racket n price? Can I get it in JB?:rolleyes:
