AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Pulse is noticeably lighter, has a much wider curve selection, and is built with elite-tier materials, but you'll pay nearly three times as much for it. The Alpha LX2 is way more affordable and still delivers a hybrid kick, making it a solid option if budget is the priority.
