New version of the Carboflex 140 – it’s 5 grams lighter, offers better maneuverability but still very good power, control and durability.
Reviews:
All the three Tecnifibre Carboflex squash rackets have been upgraded – but the 140 has changed the most, now it weighs 5 grams less and its playability has been slightly modified as well. Besides that, the grommet strip has been redesigned to protect the strings better and during restringing you can even remove the bumper to decrease the overall weight and slightly shift the balance point.

While the power and control remained on a very good level, Tecnifibre managed to improve the biggest disadvantage of the 140 – the maneuverability. The 135 S still has a bit clunky shaft, but it’s definitely more manageable.
The racquet feels good in the hand, is durable and the string is also top notch.
