Specifications
| Price (US) | $299 US MSRP $299.00 for the unstrung frame (Version 11), per the Tennis Warehouse product page. Note: a separate web search surfaced a lower $259 figure and a 72 RA / 290 swingweight spec set attributed to secondary blog sources, but those do not match the manufacturer spec sheet reproduced on the Tennis Warehouse page used as source here, so they were discarded in favor of the directly-fetched primary listing. |
