The Comet Two Ninety is the most recent entry in the Comet series of racing brooms from the Comet Trading Company (QA9).
Its maximum acceleration is nought to sixty, but only with a decent tailwind – according to a Which Broomstick article in the Summer of 1995. The magazine’s opinion is quoted by Ron Weasley, when he is talking about the new Cleansweep broom he received from his parents for being made a Hogwarts Prefect (OP9).
Commentary
Notes
The performance of this latest Comet broom is significantly inferior to the new Cleansweep 11s (OP9).
