Description

New for Pure Engineering, Pure Feel, Pure Power... PURE GENIUS! The COMBAT Pure Gear youth baseball bat brings a sleek design and one-piece composite power to the baseball diamond this season! Featuring MAP Technology that uses a single wall to allow for a longer barrel and a lighter swing weight, the Pure Gear gives players Maximum Allowable Performance! This single composite wall is constructed using COMBAT's Blended Fiber Technology (BFT) and Anisotropic Composite Technology. BFT blends several different fiber types in varying proportions at carefully controlled angles to create unbelievable trampoline effect without sacrificing durability. Anisotropic Composite Technology varies the stiffness along the handle and barrel to reduce sting, improve performance, and create a softer feeling swing. COMBAT's Variable Stiffness Technology and Gear Technology work in unison to provide lower stiffness for more trampoline effect on both sides of the normal sweetspot. As with all COMBATs, Precision Molding Technology is used to precisely calibrate the inner and outer barrel walls in order to create the exact wall thickness that will produce the highest performance allowed. COMBAT: For Players, By Players! The COMBAT Pure is approved for play in Little League, Babe Ruth, Dixie, Pony, AABC, and USSSA. It is backed by a Full Twelve (12) Month Manufacturer's Warranty. Free Shipping!

MadBats

Pros: This bat hits hard line drives, and gives a soft feeling feedback when hitting. No sting. It has the classic combat POP sound when the ball comes off the bat. Son likes it better then the B4. B4 sounds more like a wood bat when its hit. Touching the barrel feels similar to the composite used on the Omens (dry to the touch), rather then the slick/smooth lacquer feel of other combats. Just got it this week, and 5 RBI in two games. A nice bat with amazing pop for not being broken in yet.

Cons: None

Pros:

Cons: The paint chips on the barrel where the ball is hit. After one day of use, my son had about 25 paint chips on his bat. By the end of the season, the entire barrel will be chipped. Plus when Combat was contacted, they said this was normal wear and made no apologies.

Rocklin Bat Dad

Pros: This bat hits the ball real hard. If your kid has a nice this bat is magic. Not as balanced as the B4, but that is what gives it more pop. My son swung this bat with his travel team and he made everyone drop their Nike CX2 and they all started swinging the PURE!!!

Cons: None - unless your kid cannot swing

Person

Pros: One of the best I've ever used. Great pop very balanced and huge sweet spot. I recommend this bat for little league and USSSA. Great bat for 9-12yr olds that are 70-120 lbs.

Cons: -12 is too light if your son is more than 90 pounds

Carter

Pros: Nice bat,it took a little while to break in unlike my other Combat bats I have had. I have a B1,B3 Gear,and now the Pure in a 31/21. Once I got it broke in this bat is hot,giving me more distance than my B3 Gear,most of the kids on my team use it,well at least the ones who are strong enough. I'll give it a slight edge over my B3.

Cons: Durability- small chips in the bat and the white gets very dirty.

Pros: This bat was purchased for our little league 12 year old all star team 1 week ago. There has been 5 homers in 4 games. This bat is "boss" as the kids say. Hot outta the wrapper is an understatement.

Cons: The paint chips instantly. That's it though!!!!

AV dad

Pros: Excellent balance and has good pop. No sting. Best feature is the ultra long barrel sweet spot - I mean barrel goes forever so will give good bat average for 2 1/4 little leaguers. If playing pony or travel ball go with 2 5/8 until you get older with bbcor.

Cons: Its pricey and I was hoping for a little more pop. Easton S1 2 1/4 seems to have a wee bit more but hard to tell. As for the paint there is a dull clear film which chips a little but hardly noticeable and no big deal. The paint and graphics remains and is otherwise boring unlike most other Combats. White grip is cool when it gets dirty not to mention most kids have black grips so this one stands out nice on the bat rack.

Pros: This bat is AWESOME! It hits hard line drives and has a nice sound; like a wood bat. There is a huge sweetspot and the composite barrel makes it even better!

Cons: The grip and other parts of the bat are white so it will get dirty easily.

Pros: Looks good and doesn't have much sting, which makes it good for the cage.

Cons: My son used this bat for a couple of games and then went back to his Easton as it did not have as much pop and a smaller sweet spot.

Questions and Answers

Have a question about the COMBAT Pure Gear Youth Baseball Bat: PUREYB1 -10? Ask our team of experts and they will respond within 24 hours.

What is the difference between this and the B4? combatlover
The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 has Anistropic, Precision Molding, and Gear technologies not found in the B4. Anistropic is different stiffnesses and strengths to maximize feel. Precision Molding controls inner and outer wall thicknesses to maximize trampoline effect. Gear is a special taper geometry to allow greater performance toward the barrel taper.
Kara
How does this compare to the B4? Does it have more pop? More balanced? Src
These two bats are very similar in design and will perform just about the same. The main difference between these bats is the composite material the bats are made out of. The COMBAT Pure Gear is a newer model made with a more durable, higher performing composite. Both are balanced pretty evenly and have large sweet spots.
Jennifer
DOES THIS COME IN 2 3/4 BARREL SIZE? BAMA
The COMBAT Pure Gear only comes in a 2 1/4 barrel. For additional information feel free to contact our customer service at 1-866-321-2287.
Shelbe
How does this bat compare to the Easton Omen (weight/balance/performance)? The Omen feels heavier than many other bats the same size. BQS
The Easton Omen is slightly end loaded with a lot of flex. The COMBAT Pure Gear will be more balanced and stiffer than the Easton Omen. The COMBAT Pure Gear is made of top of the line composite materials and will perform similar to the Easton Omen.
Kara
Is there a break in period for this bat? BQS
According to COMBAT the Pure Gear does not require a break in period. However, we do recommend a short break-in before using the COMBAT Pure Gear in live pitching.
Kara
I am 12 years old. I am 5 foot 3 1/2. I am definitely a power hitter. I just need to increase my bat speed. Also, which has a bigger sweet spot: the COMbat Pure Gear -10 32/22 or the COMbat Pure Gear -12 32/20? COMbat Boy
The COMBAT Pure Gear would be perfect for a power hitter. The sweet spot is going to be the same on the COMBAT Pure Gear -10 and the COMBAT Pure Gear -12.
Kara
I'm considering either the pure gear or the Easton xl 1. My son is ten. Power hitter. The Easton is two piece.. Which you've stated is better for contact hitters. The combat is one piece.. Newer technology.. But is more balanced.. For a contact hitter. Is there a one piece end loaded power hitter bat? Nick
Unfortunately, most youth bats will be well balanced. The one youth bat I would recommend that's one piece with an endloaded feel is the Easton XL3.
Tyler
I'm considering this COMbat or the Easton XL1. Which is better for a contact hitter and has more pop? Ryan
The Easton XL1 will be more end loaded for a power hitter. Both will have great pop because they are both composite barrels, but the COMBAT will better suit a contact hitter.
Damon
My son is 8 year old and is 4'5" tall and weights about 70 lbs. Would you recommend the -12 or -10 version of the Pure Gear PUREYB1? tk
Based on his age, height and weight, a 29" model of the -12 version would be recommended.
Tyler
Which bat is more balanced, the Pure Gear or the COMbat B2 Reloaded, and what is the difference? Barry
Both the COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth and the 2013 COMBAT B2 Reloaded: B2YB2 -10 Youth are balanced bats. The Pure Gear will feel more like a two-piece bat.
Doug F.
what bat feels lighter, the PureGear -10 or the Easton s1.He is using a size is 31/20 -11 Easton stealth IMX Model LCN9 and says it is feels heavy. Not sure what bat is better for him, has a little power but 50% of the time its a hit to leftcenter or he's late on the swing, Any advise B5
The 2013 Easton S1: YB13S1 is a -12 model that will feel lighter and more balanced than the COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 in a similar length. It's always recommend that a player stick with the same type of bat they have used in the past with the most success. In doing so, the player is much, much more likely to have continued success at the plate.
Tyler
My son is 10 years old and weighs 70 pounds and is 4 ft. 8 in. What COMbat bat is best for him? He has a nice quick swing. Bo
The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth in a 30" 20 oz. would be a great bat for a player his size.
Frank
My son is 12 and weighs 104 lbs. He plays with a 31 inch bat. He hits with a lot of zip, mostly line drives and hard ground balls. What drop would you recommend and size? Robert
The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth would be the perfect drop for you son at 12 years old.
Chad M.
My son is 7 and weighs 50 lbs. What COMbat bat is best for him? Rob
Based on his age, we recommend a 28" model in the COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth bat. For further information on sizing, please visit our Bat Coach tool at http://www.justbats.com/bat-coach/
Aubrey
My son is 7 yrs old. He weighs in at 60 lbs and is 4' 1". What size bat would you recommend? Jason
Based on his height and weight, we recommend a 28" model. The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth will be a few ounces heavier than other Youth models in the same length, but if your player has good bat speed, he should be able to swing it efficiently.
Mac
I'm considering the Pure Gear or the Portent for my 9 year old contact hitter. Which would you recommend for more power? Or is there another brand/model that you would recommend? Joe
The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth, as well the COMBAT Portent, is a one-piece bats. For contact hitters, we normally recommend using a two-piece bat because it will allow for more flex.
Tori
Looking for a new bat for my son. He is 12, stands 5'4" and weighs 180 lbs. He is a power hitter and I can't decide between this bat and the 2014 Easton XL1 (-10, 32in. 22oz). Which would be a better bat for him? slugger
The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 -10 Youth and the 2014 Easton XL1: YB14X1 Youth are both great options for a power hitter. The XL1 will have slightly more of an end loaded swing weight.
Jason
What Pure Gear will have more pop -12 or -10? kw
The COMBAT Pure Gear (PUREYB1) -10 and -12 both use the same quality composite material. They will be similar in performance.
Kara
My son is 11 yrs old. He is 5'8" and weighs 140 lbs. He was using a 31"19 oz. half and half last year. He can hit for power or contact. Would the 32"22 oz. pure gear be suitable? Thanks for any and all help. casey
Based on his height and weight we recommend a 32" 22 oz. COMBAT Pure Gear (PUREYB1). The one-piece design that offers some flex is great for a power and contact hitter.
Kar
Is it fully composite? isaiah maza
Yes, the COMBAT Pure Gear (PUREYB1) features a fully composite design.
Tessa L.
Should this bat be broken in before using it with live pitching? I had a Combat B2 Reloaded and did about 50-100 soft tosses rotating about 1/4 inch each swing. Preston
We would recommend a similar break-in process for the COMBAT Pure Gear (PUREYB1) -10 Youth bat.
Patrick
Why is the price of these bats so low? These seem to have the highest MSRP but it's easily selling lot lower than the other COMBAT bats. Is there a problem with this bat? Paul
The COMBAT Pure Gear: PUREYB1 is a discontinued model and has been marked down. It is a high performing bat, the price is not reflective of the quality.
