At a glance
The AS-V Pro is noticeably lighter, built with pro-grade carbon, and has a much wider flex selection for serious players, but the Code Encrypt 2 is way more affordable at nearly half the price. If you're a developing player on a budget, the price gap is hard to ignore, but you're giving up real performance differences you'll feel in your shot.
