Mini Standard Begleri - Standard Metal Editions

2024 Mini Standard Edition

At the time of the original Standards launch, the mode was very much: the heavier the better. All of our designs were benchmarked against the Titans. The full-sized Modern Standards were designed with that heavier weight in mind, and were made “hardcore compatible” for anyone wanting to use our micro bead inserts for even more weight. The Mini Standards, for their part, were designed with thickened walls and a smaller recess at the base in order to maximize weight in the small form factor. Over the years, however, preferences in the community have trended towards lighter designs. Experienced players in particular have tended to gravitate towards lighter beads, especially in the smaller sized packages. Now eight years after the introduction of the originals, we've decided it was time to revisit the Mini Standards and give that lineup some love. We've kept the same reliable exterior design, with its trusty 1:1 aspect ratio, comfortable rounding, and the straight edges for supreme control. But this time, we've emptied out the interior for a spacious bore that dramatically reduces the overall weight and lets you fully tuck away your knots for a clean finish. These new Mini Standards are easy to carry, they look great, and they're a treat to play.
