I have used all the 3 Adidas bats and I feel the best profile id that of the Pellera followed by the Incruza.

     From personal experience I would also recommend the Pellara out of the three.

I had a good look at a Libro today. You will like it if you are into very traditional bats. It had no concaving and relatively thin edges and not much wood in the middle. Much like the Salix Vantage of around 10 years ago.

The Libro I saw was a county grade 3 model and to be fair looked a good piece of wood, about 15 grains and a bit of heartwood. Trouble is it was priced at £225, which is nothing but a piss take for a grade 3.

If it was the county model, it would have been grade 2, but that's still a very very high price for a grade 2. I've not heard that much good about Adidas bats, that's probably as I don't know all too many people who use them. Are you heart set on an Adidas? Maybe worth reconsidering and then buying a bat off a forum maker?

Ahh interesting: ridiculous price for a grade 3 or a grade 2 anyway.

If that sticker had said G1 then suddenly it would have been a bargain. Ignore the grading - buy a bat on performance and looks.

As I've said previously check out companies G2/3s for great deals when hand selecting. GN 5*s etc.

No way to test performance in this shop. It will have been downgraded for some reason, and £225 is alot of money for any bat.

There's about 25 different grades of willow sold to batmakers. Why are only 4 grades sold by manufacturers?
