Tried the 2.0mm on the forehand of a Tomokazu Harimoto Innerforce ALC. Weight was 48.0g.
My first impression was that it felt hard. The trajectory is flat and it generates good speed too. The ball leaves the rubber quickly. Compared to Tenergy 80 max thickness on my backhand, this felt bouncier, and my topspin drives went in really deep.
Since the drive comes out low with a lot of spin, if you hit it well you can force your opponent into overblocking, but I had to swing harder than usual to pull that off.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Little hard

Put the 2.0mm on a Tomokazu Harimoto Inner ALC, came to 48.4g
On light hits it felt soft and didn't fly much.
Hitting against backspin is stable, but if you swing upward it's soft enough that it holds the ball too long and you overhit. Trust the rubber and swing forward.
Because it's soft, even if your swing is a bit slow, the ball still clears the net and lands on the table.
It feels a bit lacking on topspin shots and topspin rallies, but blocking and countering are very easy
It doesn't have enough power to blast through the opponent, so aiming counters at specific spots works well, and with blocks you can shake the opponent back and forth.
Suited to the backhand. On the forehand there was clearly some loss of performance.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

Tried the max thickness on a Harimoto Innerforce Layer ALC. Used it on the backhand, weight was 45.8g.
Being an FX version, it's clearly softer than Tenergy 05. The ball goes where you aim it, so it's very easy to control.
That said, it doesn't fly out as much, which in a good way means it settles down nicely, and blocking is stable.
Against backspin, the softness lets the ball sink into the sponge easily, so it's easy to hit and comes back with a nice arc, but overall the shots tend to land a bit shallow. It's also easy to hit flat, though the spin seems to come on naturally on its own.
With the 05 you could induce mistakes even off blocks, but with the FX that's not really the case since the ball lands shallower. Still, it grips the ball more than a normal rubber would.
It's hard to blast through with one shot, so I think of it more as a rubber for rallying.
Players without a really strong impact can use it fine on the forehand too. Even hitting with just your arm, the shots still had decent power.Overall Speed Spin Control Hardness Soft

I used the ST grip. Weight was 89g
Since it's an inner blade, short-game shots stay on the table, and when you hit hard, the carbon's power comes through. Compared to outer ALC, you can clearly feel the better grip on the ball, so blocks are very stable, and it's a blade that's easy to pair with any rubber.
Also, it's easy to swing considering its weight.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard

I used the FL (straight handle), weight 85g.
Compared to the Innerforce Layer ALC, the bigger blade head means mishits still land on the table. The balance point shifting toward the tip increases power when you swing through properly, but you notice the racket's weight more.
With rubbers attached, the Innerforce ALC comes to 187g versus the Harimoto Inner ALC at 181g — 6g lighter — but on topspin drives the Innerforce Layer feels lighter and easier to swing.
I picked a lighter unit, but even so, pairing both sides with German-made rubbers seems tough. I think it's safer to at least put a relatively light Tenergy on one side.Overall Speed Spin Control Touch Hardness Little hard
