My god! What are the weights on those? Have to be low density clefts if they are under 3lb. I picked up a GN 50+, for its size quite well balanced but far too heavy for me to use. I assume the bat size restrictions are only for First Class cricket and bats such as these monsters are still fine to use in local comps?

All these have come labelled as 2.14 lb's the pickup is really light and feels better than my 2.9lb DC1080LE or my Kahuna.

I think club cricket should be fine  :D

Should get a group shot of the shoulders on these up in the GN stamps thread mate!

Are the profiles on these all very similar, or is there some variation?

They all have just "T" stamped.

Theres quite a variation on profiles.

The biggest one is about 55mm+ edge that's almost as big as the spine.
 The thinnest edge one was around 47mm.
And the position of middles have slight variations.

Not using any atm so hence havent taken the packaging off. Will probably give the xp80 a go first sometime in the near future.

Amazing monster bats. Are they all same specifications or each one is different?
