Adidas RX Series Light for budget-conscious improvers; Bullpadel Ionic Light for weekly committed players wanting a real upgrade.
A £55 gap and two genuinely different propositions.
The Adidas RX Series Light at £95 is one of the better value-for-money Adidas frames in UK retail: a lighter, easy-to-swing all-round racket aimed at improvers who do not want to drop £150 on their second frame. Adidas's strength here is consistency and broad UK availability.
The Bullpadel Ionic Light at £150 is the next step in seriousness: 355-365g, round, low balance, MultiEva soft core, carbon-glass hybrid face. The MultiEva core is more elbow-friendly than the RX's standard EVA, and the carbon-glass hybrid surface gives feedback the RX's plain fibreglass simply cannot.
Buy the Adidas RX Series Light if you are an improver who plays once a week and wants a sensible upgrade from your starter frame without spending £150. Otherwise go for the Bullpadel Ionic Light if you are committed enough to play multiple times a week and want a frame that will hold up against the next tier of opposition.
