Been breaking with Mezz Kai with many years now, looking suggestions and options going to a CF break shaft/cue. I have tried a few including a JFlowers, Finnish brand Dominus but without extensive chance to compare. If anyone can give some insight here, especially if you have had a chance to compare. I am not looking to spend way over $500, does CF provide enough extra punch with control? Shaft diameter? Adjustable weight bolts? Does the JB option bring more value as I don’t own a proper CF jumper at the moment either? I am a decent shooter with a realistic Fargo around maybe 700 so I am looking for a pro level cue, and good value for money as at the moment I don’t have time to play much. JFlowers seems promising with their under 500 pricing.
 
Mezz kai is great, you're not going to have much improvement with CF. I've tried all of them, and still stick with my old Mezz Power Break Pro.
 
Mezz Kai is a fantastic break cue. Unless you step up to the BK Rush I don't think there would be any improvement with the cheap carbon fibers. My .02
 
I have an old Predator BK2, I have added to it a Raven CF break shaft ($200) and to be honest, I don’t see a big difference.
If you break well with your Mezz, don’t see a reason to change.

I tried a $100 Temu Little Monster carbon J/B and I was quite pleased with it. If you can look pass the ugly decals, that a nice cue for the money.

Put a Whyte Carbon break shaft on your Mezz butt or just stick with the Mezz.

Or spend the extra $$$$ get the BK Rush & use it forever.
 
Only cf break cue i've ever hit was a Cuetec Breach and it opened-up racks like they were hit by a grenade. I'd never pay that kinda $ for a break cue but it was pretty impressive.
 
If you are looking for a Carbon break cue that has an adjustable weight system, look at the Mach 1 from McDermott. It is more than you quoted, but no other break cue on the market has the adjustable weight bolt system that it features.

This is actually a good suggestion, because I am not sure what a CF butt brings to the table (pun intended). I could just change the shaft… Too bad it is rarely cost efficient.
