Title: Another Awesome Robinsons RS Cricket bat
Post by: Mowglee123 on March 09, 2017, 09:59:28 PM: Long blade, 40mm edge, 65mm edge, 2.10 (1210gm) absolutely full profile and mind blowing ping, OK pickup. Absolutely blown away with the quality of the bat and the service. This was sourced directly from RS and Surinder has personally taken care of me as if I was buying a Ferrari. His responsiveness, attention to detail and meeting/beating all promises is over the top. I am an RS convert after being unimpressed with a lot of recent top acquisitions from UK and India. Never had anything this good by a decent margin. I don't think this was just by luck, I think their quality is genuinely awesome!!

Post by: petehosk on March 10, 2017, 09:45:04 AM: This is my fave review for a while now - obviously helps that it is LB which I mainly use.
You have one hell of a bat there by the looks of it. Hope it goes well for you ;)

When you say the ping is mind blowing- how do you rate it to the likes of SS?

Post by: Calzehbhoy on March 10, 2017, 07:26:36 PM: What was the financial damage for this @Mowglee123 ?
Title: Re: Another Awesome Robinsons RS Cricket bat
Post by: Mowglee123 on March 10, 2017, 08:56:11 PM: Financial damage was much lower than other top UK or Asian bats.
Title: Re: Another Awesome Robinsons RS Cricket bat
Post by: Mowglee123 on March 10, 2017, 08:57:59 PM: @Righthand yes, for this particular bat I would say so if i compare it against my SS Reserve Edition bat.
Title: Re: Another Awesome Robinsons RS Cricket bat
Post by: Mowglee123 on March 10, 2017, 09:00:35 PM: I haven't found anyone ( and i have looked a lot) that is providing the level or quality, service and value that is RS is able to produce.

A couple of us from here have brought from The Cricket Shed. Seem like a decent enough company. I brought some gloves, arrived in good time and well packed.

Title: Re: Another Awesome Robinsons RS Cricket bat
Post by: Ayrtek Cricket on March 12, 2017, 04:32:09 PM: They produce some very good products, Robinsons were 1 of the factories we used back in 2005 when making the CCC range and I was lucky enough to have visited Surrinder in their factory as part of my trip.
Title: Re: Another Awesome Robinsons RS Cricket bat
Post by: smilley792 on March 12, 2017, 04:54:08 PM: My mate bought one a month ago and asked me to knock it in.

Not sure on grade, but was fairly concave but had a nice long middle on it and decent ping.

The Recorder gloves look a treat!
