Our View of the Range:

The Pure Drive range is one of the classic racket ranges of all time. It has been through several re-designs over the years while maintaining the overall characteristics of the racket. The latestGen 11 models are an improvement on the previous models because they have a softer feel with the flax fibres in the throat of the rackets, which makes them more arm-friendly. The other main difference is that the frames are less stiff, which again improves comfort without affecting the feel that better players demand in a racket.
