Here's a summary of the 2011 Combat bats. I'll give you a rundown of the models available, any and all reviews I can find, and pricing information on each model and category.

The new model for 2011 is the B3 Gear and B3 Youth. They've also added a stiff version of the B1.

Important Notice!

Several leagues have announced moratoriums against the use of composite bats for the 2011 baseball season. This may include many of the bats on this page. Be sure to check out the rules of the league you are playing in this year. For more info check out the baseball bat rules page.

B1 Bomber Stiff

The B1 Bomber Stiff is a 1-piece, all composite model that is basically identical to the B1 from the 2010 series. It's available in the adult and senior categories. It has a "balanced", or light swingweight, so it will feel lighter at the barrel than most bats. It costs $300 for the adult and senior -5 versions, and $230 for the senior -10 versions.

B3 Gear

The B3 Gear is very similar to the previous B2 and the current B3 models, but features many advancements in the composite technology.

B3 Youth

The B3 is a 1-piece, all composite model available in the youth category only with drops of -10 and -12. According to Combat's website, the B3 picks up where the B1 left off. They claim that the B3 is more durable and will hold out longer than the B1 did. Their website says that advances in their Blended Fiber and Aniosotropic Composite Technologies make this possible. Like most of the Combat models, it also has a long barrel. The B3 will cost you $199.

Summary

Check out  Combat's official website for more information.

It looks as if the B1 Stiff gets good reviews at Baseball Express. If you read the B3 Youth -12 reviews, you will notice that several people complain about the bat cracking frequently. However, there is a head coach of a Little League team that says it's the hottest bat out today. The -10 model seems to be all positive reviews, but as I look at it now, there are only 4 reviews for it. Click on the links below the bat pictures to read the reviews yourself.
