Title: New light weight bas and sg
Post by: simonmay5 on January 09, 2015, 04:36:49 PM
I just got a new bas and very pleased with having a light weight bas in my collection as found it very hard to get one in a light weight the sg is very big and light with a very nice profile

Very pleased with the bas with how light it is and still is a decent size edge it has a very small amount off concaving but tap up very well indeed

. Very pleased with them both from online stockist bas was down to 80 pounds and the sg was around 65 pounds so think they are real value for money

I think we need to have a Simon May vs Pete Hosk batoff with the Stig to umpire.

Really keen to know how the SG goes, it looks awesome.

It's a really nice profile and for 65 pounds I thought it was a bargain very pleased with the bas as their hard to get in a light weight  :)

I would have struggled to get an SG like for £65 even in India. Seriously considering online stockist.

How is the ping and middle etc. on these two.

Good looking stick for 2lb 7.5oz. Is it a very lightweight cleft, reduced moisture content, or all in the concaving? I don't mind the stickers at all, but do love a light bat and I wonder how much bigger that profile could have been for the same weight minus the huge stickers and toe guard. All said and done, very jealous!.
