First, 90/100 is not an adult racing flex it is a junior flex. Second that is either an '05 or '06 boot and Rossi/Lange did not use numeric flex ratings for adult race boots at that time. Third, among adult race boots from Rossi/Lange, the appropriate flex for your weight would be ZB or ZC depending on your ability. Keep in mind that R/L does not use the numeric flex scale. For example; you could get a Lange WC 150 (150 is the model not the flex) in anything from ZA-ZB-ZC-ZI (roughly 130-160) but the decal on the boot will say 150 on all of them.
I think that you should contact the seller and ask if the flex is ZA, ZB, ZC, ZI or a combination flex. If you don't get an answer that makes sense, then you should get your boots from someone who knows race gear.

Sure:
A Lange Rossi in a ZB-ZC flex
A Nordica/Tecnica in a 130-150
A Head in the same flex range
An Atomic ditto
Maybe even a Fischer
Etc....depending on what properly fits your foot shape.

The 120 flex might work. As far as the boot itself, it would depend on which WC 120. The older versions with the removeable toe and heel lugs were not exactly Lange's best effort. The newer ones with the 1 pc boot sole are fine. It's time to find a shop that stocks a variety of race boots and a bootfitter so you can find out what fits your foot.
