Red Ink Pyro and Limited Edition
« on: February 29, 2012, 08:55:19 AM »

Just thought id give everyone an update on what to expect from Red Ink Cricket in the coming weeks. The website is taking shape slowly but is getting there. Ive been playing around with a couple of shapes to release and have settled on the 2 below.

We will be releasing 2 bat shapes available in X1 X2 and X3 grades. All bats purchased through the forum will come with a toe guard and antiscuff included.

There is also a choice in colours of stickers. White or Black design so suit your taste.

The two bats we are releasing are:

Pyro - bowed, large edges, concaved, mid to low middle

Limited Edition - large swell, good sized offset edges ( not as large as the Pyro but by no means the traditional edges) concaved depending on weight required

As mentioned we will be looking to offer a 'copy a favourite service' at a later stage. if anyone is interested then please PM me. Costs expected to be approx £25 more than the below costs so you can have a Grade 1 copy of your favourite for under £200.

Pictures of the profiles are to follow in the next week or so.

Prices are as follows

X1 - £190 forum offer to £170
X2 -£165          "          £145
X3 -£130          "          £110

P&P will be an extra £10 on top

any questions let me know.

Probably a stupid question, but being new to non shop-bought bats, what are "offset edges"?

Off set edges are normally lower than the highest point of the spine. Gives a longer middle as the wood is spread out along the blade. Toe/ low on the bat normally has very little wood in it unless it's pick up is poor. Gives wood lower down but a light pick up as te middle is slightly higher

johners. Took the red ink to winter indoor nets today and the feedback is that the balance/pickup is brilliant but it still needs some knocking in and no doubt get better and better. The balance is better than the a61 that I took down as well.

Great to hear that mate.  Feedback is also good. Let me know how it goes once its let loosr on the bowlers outside. Hope it gets you plenty of runs.
