Overview

Construction and context
The manufacturer names Solid Frame Technology, Premium Graphite Construction, Proportional Frame Design, a Quadra/Tear Drop Hybrid Frame, and a dampener system in its product description. These are Gearbox’s published technology and construction terms, not independently verified effects on play.
Who it may suit
This record may help someone compare the published 170 g unstrung weight, 13 mm head-heavy balance label, grip options, material label, and supplied string. It does not determine which configuration fits a particular player.
Specifications in context
- 170 g unstrung weight
- This is Gearbox’s published unstrung weight, useful for catalogue comparison but not a finished-weight measurement for every setup.
- 13 mm head heavy balance
- This is the listed balance specification and a comparison field, not a promise about maneuverability or power.
Tradeoffs and caveats
- The stated 170 g weight is unstrung, so a finished racket can differ once stringing and accessories are added.
- A head-heavy balance label is a published comparison field, not a guarantee about swing feel.
- Confirm current grip availability, supplied components, and warranty terms on Gearbox’s product page before purchase.
