Lok Be Hype vs Siux Electra ST5 Pro Shadow Red 2026 Franco Stupaczuk

“The Lok Be Hype 2025 is a mid-range teardrop-shaped racket from a lesser-known brand that leans toward offensive play but struggles to differentiate itself in a crowded market. The feel is somewhat stiff and unrefined compared to established competitors at a similar price point, with a narrow sweet spot that punishes off-centre hits. Intermediate players seeking a budget power option may find it functional, but most would be better served by more proven alternatives from brands with stronger R&D behind them.”

“Franco Stupaczuk's Shadow Red ST5 is built to attack: power 90 with control 78 is a proper first-strike profile, and the confirmed even balance at 365 g explains why it feels quicker between shots than its hitting power implies. Blocks and counters stay manageable, then the same frame turns a short lob into a finished point. The firm side is unavoidable: comfort 67 and tolerance 66 mean mishits are felt and punished. Beyond balance and weight, full spec for this colourway is unconfirmed, so try before you buy. For aggressive all-court players it is a convincing signature frame.”
