If 2.12 is your limit then certainly rule out the pepsi as they start quite heavy. With my limited knowledge, May i suggest that , you can try the modified xlphon shape- they have not been made till now - or other profile such as tonto or new db1..

I have a big and small xlphon it currently at b3 but it sure picks up well.

Tonto for mid high would be a very good choice and come in at around 2-12 in your weight

The db1 would be a denser cleft as it uses less of the wood than a Tonto.

Pick up wise db1 picks better than the other two all things being equal ie density.

guys, any suggestions for a mid to low middle light weight bat profile to go for? I can't lift heavy bats so won't go over 2.8/9.

What's the difference on the db1/2 bats now? Mid middles or?

Gaz Cross profile comes in around 2.9 with a mid to low middle. So does shape #14 on their list as well.

Shape 18 can be got down to 2lb 8/9 I think. Very good shape!

Ive got a #19 at 2lb8.75 and its still quite chunky. Might have to do a bit of bespoking on a particular shape to knock an ounce off here or there

Seconded, Gaz Cross fits the bill perfectly. I've actually got a #15 weighing 2.10 which has got a mid/low middle. It's a seriously chunky bat, with great coverage all over. Maybe worth a punt if you want to go a bit heavier, if not then Gaz Cross profile will be spot on.

Haven't got any pics of the Gaz Cross but this is my current B3 #15 weighing just over 2.10 and picks up beautifully. Great coverage in this bat, it pretty much responds from the bottom of the stickers through to just above the toe.

Lovely bat mate, I guess I'll have to wait for the next B3 butterfly offer :-P

I'm dropping into B3 tomorrow with my Mullanator for a refurb and I'm using my voucher and asking for an identical twin - bat suits me perfectly, absolutely no reason for me to change.

The Mullanator is a great shape and would probably come in around your max weight...
