At a glance
The Code Encrypt 1 is noticeably lighter at 400g and offers a hybrid kick point, while the Novium 2 SP is way more affordable at $130 and comes with a much wider curve selection across a broader flex range. If pure value and pattern options matter most, the Novium wins on paper, but the Encrypt 1 gives you better feel and less weight for $24 more.
