While I agree the design/cosmetic of the new line are more attractive, the TF T40 305 may be the best frame I've touched since the AK90. Try it stock with Prince Diablo 17 gauge (in silver) at 44#. Magic! :) BHBH
P.S. I hit that OHBH sharply cross court a lot with no problem using the TF40 305. It’s probably also worthwhile noting I dropped my string tension by a whopping 17 pounds, from 63 in the AK 90 to 46 in the Tecnifibre
