Interesting new brand - loving both the shapes and the stickers. Seem to be exclusive to 3D sports...

anyone know anything about them?

It's an off-shoot of Kookaburra, they own it. Potentially the handmade bats are carving into the Kookaburra mkt-share so they're creating a boutique brand themselves?

Is it really? so does that mean that they use Kook bats? Obviously complete speculation unless anyone knows anything...

Actually now that you mention it, the photos do look like standard Kook stock shots.

Kookaburra have a new building at their HQ in Corby and although i haven't been in there, looking through the window it would appear to have all the necessary equipment for repairs and refurbs, it isn't a huge stretch to obtain some more equipment for batmaking, particularly if they buy in pre-pressed blades (speculation)

The descriptions make no mention of being UK made though. Which i'm sure is something they would promote if it were the case.

Also worth mentioning that 3D Sports is also run/closely linked with Kookaburra, so there could be other reasons behind the launch of Rose.

Don't think they'll sell too many of the top model in Yorkshire! ;) Do look nice though.
