Gray Nicolls evo slayer experiment
« on: July 07, 2012, 01:50:29 PM »
Was in jjb about 2 weeks ago and picked up 2 very cheap evo slayers for about 60 quid

there the horrible ones with the crap coating and grain sheet on.

Me being bored and nothing better to do i stripped the 2 bats and hey presto here are the results

Perhaps the 16 grainer was downgraded for another reason? It looks too good to have had a covering fitted to hide the grains.
