Yonex ZR 100 Light Aluminium Rackets, Set of 2

The Yonex ZR 100 Light is a two-racket badminton set listed at £30.48, rated 4.2 out of 5 from 2,856 ratings, and ranked 6th in Badminton Rackets. It takes the #6 slot in this guide. Unusually for the listings here, the material fields do not fight each other: the bullet says "Material: Aluminum" and the Material Type, Frame Material Type and Shaft Material fields all read Aluminium. The weight is where it stops making sense. The Item Weight field reads 100 g, but the same listing sells two racquets with full covers and gives a Unit Count of 2.0. A 100 g figure is plausible for one badminton racquet; it is not plausible for two racquets plus two covers, and nothing on the page says which of those the 100 g is meant to describe.

The dimensions are just as hard to read. Item Dimensions are given as 55.9L x 50.8W centimetres, and a 50.8 cm width is not a measurement any badminton racquet has. The Grip Size field reads 3 3/4 inches, which is a grip figure borrowed from tennis sizing rather than the G4/G5 labels badminton players usually see. What the listing does say clearly is who it is for: Beginner and Intermediate in the Skill Level field, matching the bullet that calls the ZR 100L "ideal for beginners and intermediate level players". Everything on this page is taken from the Amazon listing itself — we have not handled, strung or played with these racquets.
