Our verdict

The Taipan Liquid Edition is Vibor-A's 2023 second snake: an even-balanced 375 g teardrop with an EVA core scoring power 80 and the brand's characteristic bite, in a livery that has aged handsomely. The terms are house-standard: control 68, comfort 65, tolerance 64. Value 74 reflects vintage pricing on a frame the market has largely forgotten, which is precisely its appeal: Mamba-adjacent hitting without Mamba-edition premiums. For brand devotees who want something rarer than the famous snake at friendlier money, the Taipan is the connoisseur's sleeper. Inspect old stock carefully.

We loved

  • Value 74 for the forgotten snake
Worth knowing
  • Old stock: inspect thoroughly
  • Strict terms: comfort 65, tolerance 64

Vibor-A's forgotten second snake

This carries Mamba-adjacent bite at genuinely sleeper pricing: real power with the brand's characteristic directness, in a livery that's aged handsomely rather than looking dated. It's a legitimate way into Vibor-A's attacking character for less than the famous name costs. The terms are house-standard strict — comfort and tolerance both ask real conditioning. Being old stock, inspect thoroughly, and know the newer Vibor-A frames outperform it if raw output is your priority.
