I’d like to see some of the custom jobs out there! Please attach pics (if available), and details (if known) such as: Mass, SW, Balance, added features, stringing, ETC. Anything that makes you’re frame custom!

Also: any suggestions for other members frames that might help their frame stand out would be nice too!

I’ll start with an I.Radical MidPlus 98 - Here’s what I’ve done so far: I’m going to tune it a little closer to Andy Murray’s custom i.radical specs of a few years back (when time permits)

~TK57 CAP Grommet installed
~350 g strung mass...ALU power 125
~355 SW
~Balance 32.0
~4-1/4 pallet w/silicone injected -Finest Calfskin Leather

Pics:

Update:*tournagrip added which results in net mass of 353g

I could, but you already have all pictures since I got them from you :)

Joking aside, that is a cool idea for a thread. I will grab my camera now...

will you be doing that every overgrip? and string change, and after you use new power pads, and after you chip a small amount of paint? please sir, find something more to do with your time than weighing a racquet after you put an overgrip on, especially when you know that an overgrip wont affect your game in the least bit. I seriously wonder why the hell this is interesting to you or anyone.

Sounds like you've got some nice frames. Have you strung them up yet? Post pics when you get a chance.

Actually not too bad. The customization was $60 and I paid $100 for each racquet because I'm sponsored by babolat. I got the new bag, reel of revenge, 7 racquets, grips so more crap for $825.
