Previous-generation Babolat Pure Drive. Compare the sourced specification and full buying cost before paying for a newer version.
Editorial verdict
Is it worth demoing?
Best for
Owners and used buyers comparing this exact previous generation with its newer equivalent. Keep a frame that already meets your needs; test the change with similar strings.
Think twice if
A previous-generation name is not enough to establish value. Check condition, parts availability and the ready-to-play cost; nominal specifications do not establish identical feel.
Trade-off: Watch how steady it feels returning a big serve, especially when you catch it off-centre.
Strings and ownership
Use the manufacturer range above where it is published. Agree the material, thickness and starting tension with your stringer; there is no universal setup for this frame.
