I think these have a good chance of being fake.
After watching Jason's video about Spartan bats, the tape around the handle is the give away.

On Twitter it now says Romida in 2 weeks...

One thing you can say is that Prior, Clarke and Gayle have done rather well since Spartan sponsored them.

Agree! Could by yourself two top quality bats from the some of the forum sponsors here for the price of one top end Spartan.

Anybody tempted to spend some hard earned cash on any of the Spartan gear?

The softs are priced at what I would expect them to be.

Bats are on the high side.

Will probably buy the MC pads and gloves if they are the same as the Oz version.

I would say they are about the same price as their Kooks so about what I would have expected, but I will stick to my English made bats by English based bat makers/companies.
