More about GM Radon Bats

The GM Radon cricket bat range offers entry-level English willow bats at the most accessible price point in the GM collection. Designed for developing players and club cricketers progressing from Kashmir willow, the range is available in Short Handle and junior sizes, with factory-fitted blade protection, ToeTekâ„¢ reinforcement and a Control grip included as standard.

1. What are the GM Radon cricket bats?

The GM Radon cricket bats are Grade 4 seasoned English willow cricket bats, positioned as the most accessible English willow option in the Gunn & Moore range. Grade 4 willow delivers reliable power and responsiveness for match play, and while it sits below the higher grades used in GM's elite ranges, it offers genuine English willow performance at a price point accessible to developing players. It is also a hardball match bat, designed for club and developing cricketers, and is available in multiple profiles and weights to suit different playing preferences.
Every Radon comes fitted with a factory-applied GM polycarbonate cover, a Treble Spring Multi-Piece Cane handle, a Control grip, and a ToeTek toe guard as standard.

2. The Radon cricket bat range at Gunn and Moore

a. For adults
The adult Radon features a 540mm blade in Short Handle configuration. It is the primary option for adult players entering English willow cricket, including casual club cricketers and those moving up from Kashmir willow bats. Multiple profiles and weights are available to select in-store.

b. For juniors
The junior Radon range covers seven sizes from size 1 to 6 and Harrow size, making it one of the most complete junior options in the GM lineup. Size 1 - 6 are designed for young junior cricketers, while Harrow size is intended for older juniors who have outgrown size 6 but are not yet ready for full adult bats.
Junior models feature DXM technology for lightweight pick-up, supporting younger players as they develop bat speed and timing. It is a strong first English willow bat for juniors at the beginner and early development stage.

3. FAQs

a. What willow grade does the GM Radon use, and how does that affect performance?
The Radon is made from seasoned Grade 4 English willow, offering reliable power and durability for beginner and club-level match play, with performance that holds up well over multiple seasons when properly maintained.

b. How does the GM Radon compare to GM's Kashmir willow bats?
The Radon is made from English willow, which is a higher-performing material than Kashmir willow and is used across GM's full professional lineup. Kashmir willow bats like the Diamond 101 are better suited to very casual or first-time players and come at a lower price point. The Radon is the right step up for players who are ready for English willow but are not yet at the level where a higher-grade bat is justified.

c. Do I need to knock in the GM Radon before using it?
GM cricket bats feature GM NOW! preparation, which includes knocking-in, oiling and a clear protective face. We do, however, suggest a ‘playing in’ period where the bat is used against old balls in the nets before being taken into a match.

d. What junior sizes does the GM Radon come in?
The GM Radon Junior range covers Harrow, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, making it suitable for a wide range of ages and heights. Junior players should be sized by height rather than age to ensure the right fit and pick-up.
