i need one. Can you please send me more details

"Designed" in Australia, not handcrafted in Australia these ones aren't they? Still look great value and will undoubtedly feel amazing
Stickers designed in Australia, Bats were Made in Australia,
-
They're a lot of bat for the money!!

Reminds me of this... Why did I sell it?

Would say someone at GN has dropped the ball here, just make it sound like they are trying to avoid saying made in India.
-
I was under the impression that only the 1000 models and upwards were made in Aus, i'm not sure GN Aus even have 300 or 400 models, and I havent seen that sticker on the back near the shoulder on any GN Aus bats, really strange if they have come from Aus.
-
They will state on them if they are Aussie made.
-
Don't the Aussie made ones have some sort of A stamped on the back of the toe, or is that not on them all?
-
They should also have an Australian flag cap on top of the handle
-

Im Not sure they have, they dont hide the fact where there bats are made. I'll try and get some handle pics up later, hopefully that may help.

I meant if they are Aussie made it's an odd thing to put on them.
-
The ones made in Australia have always been natural with no toe guard or edge tape/scuff sheet. I haven't seen them deviate from this in a long time.

Is the lighter one still available?

Sold i'm afraid

Based on my experience, those Atomics are Indian. Thats not to say they are bad by any means, i've picked out and chosen to stock many Indian GN's over the years. I don't recall GN mentioning that they were Aus made when they launched them to the UK retailers. The fairly budget end Kaboom DW32 is definitely Indian made, the stickers say 'designed in Aus' on them.
-
The heavier one was purchased by yours truly, will pop up a review soon! 😁
@KettonJake Do Robertsbridge normally use handles with the S stamp? I know that some made in India will almost certainly use them too, so it's probably not a definitive trait of a UK made one, but is that the generally the kind of handle used?
Also, agree RE the Indian bats, one of the best responding bats I have is a Powerbow5 400, and boy does that thing ping...
-
Like them, although not a fan of the tape running all the way up the bat, and under the stickers, what's that all about

That hashtag #forthehaters is stupid.
Seems negative once out of its immediate context.
On topic, I expect they will be fantastic bats.
-
Should be great bats especially as all being made in the uk

It is strange, especially as most of the gn players were using the atomic in the big bash
-
Are the atomics only made to order (ie a bat made every time an order is placed) and what grade is the 800?

There are 6 in stock, i imagine if these sell they will make some more. From the stickers its 'select grade 1 willow'

I just acquired an Aus 1400 Atomic. Cracks like a gun off the middle. Great pick up and my fav profile

My personal bat supplier 😎😜😎

Thanks to Rob, just received delivery of this today. 2lb 10oz and nice and full! Early tapping of a ball is very promising... Excellent service and a pleasure to deal with!

Anyone know yet whats the mystery behind the edge tape going under the stickers on these bats?
-
It's like GM putting the face sticker over the scuff. If you want to keep the stickers when you refurb, send it to the brand to do the work.
-
Been knocking mine in over last few weeks and it’s a lovely bat, nice wider grains with the odd mark but it responds so well to the mallet and an old ball
-
Just had this Atomic made, was told at GN hq when i visited that they would make a 300 to order. Available for £145 inc uk delivery, bargain for a uk made bat, taps up nicely

Any chance they'd make the Giant to custom order? 😋
