I did a search and did not find any thread on Tron hockey sticks. Was wondering if anyone has tried them out? They look like they are basically a clone of the RS and Mako sticks. Maybe from the same factory.

My brother bought one and let me use it in warm ups. Felt like a log with terrible good puck feel.

I've checked out the 405 ones in the shop a few times. Look pretty shitty. Would never use one.

Will not hesitate to buy the LE again when I need a new stick.
New version of the elite says they have changed some things, don't know if it will get me to buy one though.
If your on a budget you cannot go wrong... head and shoulders above the other sticks in the price range.
You can rag on them for not being the same or close to the total one or mako or whatever they claim to be, but who ever made it in the selling business by down playing their product? They are good people to deal with from my experience too.

I thought I read something about they had them painted with the image of a total one weave (to make it look like a real total one) with their graphics over them but I could be wrong.i wouldnt judge too hard, their Elite sticks are actually Total ones repainted with a tron logo

The story is that when bauer shut down its second factory in china or japan after they came out with the total ones they left the product in there and sold the product/factory to tron for ridiculously cheapI thought I read something about they had them painted with the image of a total one weave (to make it look like a real total one) with their graphics over them but I could be wrong.
most of the stick in there were not finished as far as decals so tron went in and put "TRON" where bauer normally sits.
that's literally it. and the lower end sticks, well bauer too has lower end sticks, total one, one100, and down it goes if you get what i mean

Many factories in Asia claim they produce sticks for Bauer and Easton. Look on any sourcing sites and you'll see. It's no better than all the factories that claim they make genuine Reebok jerseys at wholesale prices. At the end of the day they're knockoffs.
If your bag has wheels, you don't.

The Tron Elite I will definitely pick up a few when they go for $49.99 again. They are selling a two pack of $160.00, their Jarvis curve is very nice too.
The "new" Elite are $240 for two, a bit too much for me right now, but their prices always seem to drop all the time.

back in the 90s that is when franklin was in the hockey business too and they sold Easton hockey sticks like good ones from the time, and some franklin shafts and replacement blades for them

The fact that they hang counterfeit jerseys in the window of their Los Alamitos store should tell you something about the sticks.
Most Play It Again Sports I've walked into also sell them, in the end you don't have a gun to your head being forced to buy them.
