Newton Begleri - Mixed Media Editions
Newton Begleri - Mixed Media Editions
NOTE: This listing is for pairs of weighted inserts (or sets, in the case of micro hydras), sold without shells. Hardcore shells are in a separate product listing.
The Newtons or “Newts” for short, are like a minimalist version of the classic Herc cores. They are slightly lighter, and the design is trimmed down with a flat bottom and a slightly smaller flange. This retains the end weighting for good swing, while reducing the overall size and weight for players wanting a compact, nimble bead.
These beads are designed to fit inside any “Hardcore Compatible” set, such as the Modern Standards, the Everyman (hardcore models), and the Curio begleri. They also fit our silicone bands, through which you gain the advantages of excellent bead control on the sides of the beads, without being slowed down by grip at the top of the bead.
We are launching these as a minimalist and inexpensive option for players of all levels, and have priced them accordingly. Please note the finish on them is raw and unpolished. They ship with four randomly selected silicone bands (multi-packs of bands are sold separately).
