Motiv Octane Carbon

Motiv Octane Carbon bowling ball

Motiv · Discontinued

The Motiv Octane Carbon is a symmetrical pearl bowling ball from Motiv, released in April 2017. It has the Agitator MXR Pearl coverstock and the Injector weight block, finished at 5500 Grit LSP out of the box. At 15 lb its RG is 2.56, with a differential of 0.042. It's been discontinued.

Among the 194 balls here with a 15 lb version, its RG is high, so it gets down the lane before it revs up, and its differential is medium. Motiv rates it 80 for length, 84 for backend and 55 for hook, out of 100: it starts to hook late, turns sharply at the breakpoint and hooks moderately overall, with at least 4 inches of flare potential.
