AI Breakdown

At a glance

The Ribcor 96K gives you way more flexibility with four flex options and two curve choices, plus it's noticeably lighter at 450g, while the True Catalyst is a locked-in pro stock build at one flex with a mid-kick that demands a stronger shot. The Ribcor runs $20 more but lets you dial in your exact specs, whereas the Catalyst is a "what you see is what you get" pro-spec tool.
