What players say
Reviewers consistently praise the CX 200 (18x20) LE for surgical control and a crisp, comfortable feel, calling it a precision baseliner's frame. The recurring knock is a low stock swingweight that leaves it short on power and plow-through, meaning most advanced players end up adding weight to stabilize it.
Best for
- Baseliners who value control over pace
- Players with fast, technical swings
- Those who plan to customize with added weight
- Serve-and-volleyers who want feel and precision
Pros
- Excellent, surgical control and shot placement
- Crisp, comfortable feel with low arm shock
- Good spin from the tight 18x20 pattern and widened center spacing
- Maneuverable thanks to low swingweight
Cons
- Power is adequate at best in stock form
- Low stock swingweight (270-275 unstrung, sub-310 strung) hurts plow-through
- Can feel unstable against heavy pace unless customized with added weight
- Twists on off-center hits

I would say that it needs more head weight to add some plow through.

I really felt like I could place the ball precisely.
— Munish (Tennis Warehouse playtest team), Web
a crisp feel, but it also keeps any shock from transferring to my arm
— Munish (Tennis Warehouse playtest team), Web
a bit unstable, but that can be solved with a bit of tungsten tape
— Mark (Tennis Warehouse playtest team), Web
The combination of its weight and frame stiffness delivered lots of comfort and a little bit of power.
