Description
The Mark Richard EPB01 is a dedicated English Pool break cue designed for players who want a stronger, more decisive break without moving into high-priced specialist cues. Built with a slightly heavier profile and a firm tip setup, it delivers the extra weight and impact needed for consistent opening shots on UK-style pool tables.
At 57" in length and weighing between 18–20oz, the EPB01 offers a solid, controlled feel that suits players developing their break technique or looking for a reliable secondary cue specifically for breaking.
Cue Overview
Designed with simplicity and function in mind, the EPB01 focuses on stability through the cueing action and clean energy transfer at impact. The slightly heavier weight helps generate power without forcing the stroke, making it well suited to English Pool players who want repeatable, controlled breaks.
Craftsmanship & Design
The shaft is made from Canadian ash, selected for straightness and durability. The zebra wood butt provides both visual contrast and a balanced feel in the hand. A 3/4 jointed construction keeps the cue practical for transport while maintaining a solid, connected response through the shot.
The cue is fitted with an 11mm fibre ferrule and medium-hard leather tip, offering a firm contact point suited to break shots and general English Pool play.
Performance & Playability
With its heavier overall feel and stable balance, the EPB01 allows players to break confidently without over-hitting. The cue promotes a controlled follow-through and predictable cue ball response, helping players build consistency rather than relying on raw force.
