Version · 6 optionsGX1 170 Quadraform 2024Change
The GX1 170 Quadraform was Gearbox's main racquet in 2024 and 2025 and remains in high demand. It is 170 g unstrung, 22 inches, with head-heavy balance and a 14x19 string pattern on a square head that enlarges the usable area. The redesigned throat increases torsional stiffness and absorbs impact better, and the 3K carbon with T700 gives a dampened feel. It is a powerful, stable racquet, with more forgiveness than the teardrop versions.

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
