I think the decision to sort of blend the 105 and 120 is pretty huge here, and getting lost in the shuffle of just being another option. Nippon doesn’t halfway anything, and these have had some extensive time and development put into themI used to play x100's so that sounds amazing to me!!! PXi's are gettin hard to find and I hated the feel of the PX IO.....im sold on these!

I’m confused how you see this shaft as a blend of 105/120 when the EI curve shows this shaft to be a hybrid of the 105/125. I just don’t see any 120 influence in this shaft. The 115 has stiffer tip and butt section than the 105 but these sections are softer than the 125. Again, according to the EI curve, the 115’s mid section is a nearly the same or fraction stiffer than the 105’s mid section. The video attached explains the differences and I think the 115 will be the middle ground.I think the decision to sort of blend the 105 and 120 is pretty huge here, and getting lost in the shuffle of just being another option.

All good Jman! I’ve made my share of mistakes too.Simple typos dude, I get going fast and these things happen, I am human after all.
Going back and checking my paper notes for the article, I wrote 125 each time, but typing went 120. Many apologies.
I really need to get my hands on a set of these because i liked the 105 but I bet I’d love these.I think the decision to sort of blend the 105 and 120 is pretty huge here, and getting lost in the shuffle of just being another option.

There’s a lot to like. I really do mean that, both from a weight and profile perspective.I really need to get my hands on a set of these because i liked the 105 but I bet I’d love these.
Oh, I just want the sleek black shafts. There’s more to it?!There’s a lot to like. I really do mean that, both from a weight and profile perspective.
Of course more reviews are always wanted. The idea was simply to use this great review thread to help those searching find them in the same placeI read through that review, just wanted to give some comparison numbers between the entire Modus lineup.

Mod merge FTW!
Can’t wait to hear your thoughts.
They look a lot better in my opinion and the black looks very similar to the px blackout shafts in that picView attachment 8976707
It's too early to say anything about durability, but they look and feel like very different finishes when handling and prepping/installing them.

It's WAY lighter, with more of a copper&gray chrome, than a PX blackout. Closest, but still different, to a KBS black pvd like on $-taper, Hi-Rev, etc of what I have nearby. It's really a cool color that changes depending on the light.

PX Blackout
New Modus 115
KBS black pvd
KBS Custom gloss black
KBS Custom matte black
True Temper onyx
Hope that helps. My instinct is that it will be much more durable than the flatter modus black. It's a thinner coating, that seems much more fine, and applied in maybe a different way. It doesn't scrape or sand at all in the same way as... just about anything else on that counter.
Thanks for the pic, I really like the look of these and may have to try get my hands on a set. Not sure I can stomach the price this close to Xmas thoughView attachment 8976715
