Blade: Tibhar stratus powerwood cant go wrong here. Rubbers: nittaku factive or Xiom Vega Intro both sides 2mm

Two budget rubbers come to mind: Palio AK47 red : this one will be faster, but quality of the rubber is not great Yinhe Moon 12: I think this is the better rubber. Gives more spin, needs good technique to get speed out of it

Great post, thanks a lot for your insights. I'd like to add another 7ply allwood: Sanwei V5 pro It has harder than Limba Ash outer plys. It's lighter than some of the 7ply woods but faster relative to its weight. My 83g one feels as fast as my 95g Fextra 7.

Looks to me like your glues layers are too thick. Maybe to much booster too, because your glue looks softened from the booster

Whats your current blade? If this is your first custom racket, get the sanwei fextra 7 85-90 grams. It's similar to the pg7 but a little softer, better dwell and spin.

The neo logo is from DHS so maybe it's just a bunch of familiar logos to lure in customers.

New Rubber: 729 Friendship Battle 2 Neo https://a.aliexpress.com/_EIWsB5V

Looks like the normal packaging

Also the rubbers on premades aren't the same, The loki rxton 3 is also a little livelier than the 5, hence a bit easier to play. If you want a faster more bouncy rubber the normal yinhe moon or palio ak47 might be a better fit

If this is your first custom racket I recommend you this: Blade: Sanwei Fextra 7 FH: Loki Rxton 3 BH: Yinhe Moon 12 blue

In my head it means price/performance, but now that I think more about it, I could be wrong

Wow i have the exact same feeling about the CC. For under 10$ it's unbeatable.

Send it back IMO Get a real long 5 or yinhe pro 05, love that one personally

Can someone campare it to yinhe moon 12 blue? I want to know if its worth a try. I really like moon 12 m+ as a bh rubber, because it's so stable and precise.

729 Battle 3 Plays like a boosted rubber, is durable, easy access to spin and speed. Easier to play than h3, more durable than esn hybrids, no need to boost.

Finally got back to try it. I didn't like it at all: it felt slow, not elastic, Almost like an Anti but with grip. The rubber is really dampening the impact. Worst rubber I bought so far. Don't know if I got a dud....

Oh wow, that's bad to hear. I have a black sheet here next to me, that has been on a racket I use to play outside and I'm surprised how well it held up. I haven't bought them in over a year, so maybe recently they suck. But thinking is: any of the popular 5$ rubbers will work for a beginner and...

Ok we must have had very different experiences with loki, because the sheets I played, rxton 1 and 3 didn't seem different in quality. Rxton 1 has the softer sponge and is easier to play than 3 on the backhand. Ak47 is also an good option, but I'd say rxton 1 has better durability. Ak47 is also...

If you're a beginner/intermediate level Player get the Sanwei Fextra 7. It's fast for allwood, plenty dwell feel and flex. If you get them with ca. 90gr and you'll have a very solid do it all offensive blade. It's only a bit slower than inner carbon but better feel. And it's super cheap. It...

What are you playing right now? Why do you want an inner carbon blade? I ask because most backhand dominant players tend to use outer carbon blades. The Sanwei 75 inner is a nice blade and I'd prefer it over the dhs pg5x, dhs has no good finish and qc on their blades. It's very stable and crisp...
