Should be 4" shouldn't it, even a size 4 is 4" wide!

[just had a bacon sandwich so on a bit of a high]

It looks a different shape to the originals.

It is a different shape. It has an element of the Laver Ultra to the shoulders which wasn't there in the earlier versions.

[Talisman]

But I think it look a nice one.

Haven't bounced a ball on it or mallet test, did not have the time and to be honest did not want to mark it in case i had to return it (Plus the mallet broke last weekend on a bulldog  , so waiting for a new one to arrive)

Will measure the edge on it later today..does feel very light for the size..

After speaking with Jason i understand Lekka are coming out with some other newer designs too...not neccessarily for TPX but in general

From what I recall, the standard bat is RDX in the UK market and Big Hitter is the Joker style one. TPX was always just a set of stickers that also got added. US branding may be different.

Yeah they are calling big hitter TPX here...

couldnt the reason why its so big for its weight is that half inch off or however much is missing

this is precisely the reason why it is huge for its weight. It is a harrow sized blade at a mansize weight...

[cricket43]

did people know that it was a harrow sized blade or did they think they were getting an full sized blade as tushar did

If you read the rest of the thread, you'll see that most people don't realise this. It is advertised as shorter blade but little mention is made of the narrower factor.

[SixOfTheBest]

I am wanting one of these style bats, either the Lekka Big Hitter or the Joker, from what I have read most people say they are as good as identical, the only real difference is the branding. Could you guys attest to that?

[cricket43]

Yeah i started reading it but forgot everything as soon I saw pictures of the bat. Personally it cant be too bad I imagine as it was supposed to made for the shorter format of the game but i think it should be still mentioned thats its narrower.

[Simmy]

black cat dont mention it either
