Why it is $239 here and $309 everywhere else
- 1We buy at distribution volume, not retail. Padelnox runs one warehouse and no shopfronts. The margin a pro shop spends on rent and staff is the margin you keep.
- 2stock, sealed and unused. Same frame, same factory, same cover as the Babolat pro shop sells. We just do not charge you for the shopfront.
- 3You are covered either way. Tracked delivery, 30-day returns on unused gear, and a real person on the other end of our contact page.
The Pure Aero 98 has the smallest head, tightest string spacing and thinnest beam in the Pure Aero family, giving more control than the standard Pure Aero while keeping its spin. The 2026 shaft is reshaped to cut drag, and NF2 flax fibres soften the feel. Best for advanced players with fast, full swings who want spin and accuracy.

What buyers say
★★★★★ 4.8 out of 5 from 213 reviewsI was nervous ordering a racket online at this price. No need. It is the real thing and the balance is spot on.
Switched from a cheaper beginner frame and the control difference is obvious immediately. Worth every cent.
Grip, cover and frame all as pictured. My coach checked it over and confirmed it is genuine.
Played four sessions with it now and the sweet spot is genuinely bigger than my old frame. Ball comes off the face with far less effort.
Good to know
Yes. Play with it for 30 days. If the frame is not what you wanted, send it back in unused condition and we refund it in full. You do not need to give a reason. Return postage on a change of mind is yours; if the item arrived faulty or wrong, we cover it.
Your order includes exactly what is listed in the product details above, such as a racket cover or gift box where stated. Overgrips, frame protectors and bags are sold separately.
Most adult players use grip 2 (4 1/4) or 3 (4 3/8). If you are between sizes, go smaller: you can always build a grip up with an overgrip, but you cannot make it smaller.
Rackets are listed as unstrung unless the product details say otherwise. Any stringer can string it to your preferred tension.
Orders are processed within 1-3 business days and delivery typically takes 7-14 business days. You will receive a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships.
You can return unused items in their original packaging within 30 days of delivery. Contact us first and we will walk you through it.
