or look in the for sale section, you can get a "pro" gn for 130, or a cheap Halo.

my suggestion is you buy the £150 custom bat from fletchuk.

...and then ask him to make you a Cenkos?

Sure the Willow Baron will have some appropriate stickers lying around :)

Sorry, I've only got Canadian willow left lol

On a serious note,  get in touch if your interested. Its a nice bit of English willow, taps up better than it looks and it looks very good.

I'd say so. Honestly it's a nice bit of willow, shocked that it hasn't gone yet.

Which i suspect is directly correlated to the worst summer in 80 years and various retailers going bust... Why buy kit you can't use?

Aye true - an additional factor being the clever marketing of some of our bigger sponsors such as IJC with their 30% off and pre-order a Dynadrive lines.
