Hi. I'm trying to find a good beginner/intermediate penhold (traditional Chinese) bat that I could possibly buy. A pre-rubbered bat that's definitely no more expensive than £25 is what I'm looking for, or are penhold bats harder to come across at that price and are they hard to find pre-rubbered?

Thanks in advance.

There's a couple options on here, from 13-25 pounds: http://oneofakindtrading.com.au/Shop/in ... 5481b00472

or you could get Alex and Luna to make you up a blade and rubber, like the Galaxy 961 and 729-2 for inbetween the cost of the two above.

Most any dealer will cut and glue the rubber to the racket, so you don't have to depend on them being pre-assembled to avoid this chore.

C-pen is easy to find imo

i know some1 managed to get some decent bats made for £15 so you'll get a good bat for under £25

Which one of these are penhold bats? The Double Happiness 6006 is a penhold for £25.40, I know that, but I can't see any others. Oh wait, I just followed a link to the right and found this 729 Fighter Glass Fiber Penhold Bat (complete with wristband and rubber protection film! :lol: ) for $28.95, which is around £13.40. Hmm...

If you are referring to a premade, I think you should avoid it. I believe with your budget you can get a decent blade and rubber, and the seller will glue it for you.

dont go premade.

Its more fun when you do things yourself fishy.

Get what you want on blade and rubber and go cheap buying long pip on bh.haha advantages of using penhold, you rarely get to use the bh.

Meaning one who is not satisfied with the equipments he already has, and is always tempted to buy new one.
