Got one on the way

Just ordered a new Cyclo (VES system and it comes with 2 edge adapters). This will be a nice addition to the collection along side the Flex 3401 and Makita.

Re: Got one on the way

Congrats, what are you planning on using it for? Final finishing, swirl removal, wax application, etc?

Its going to be for one step jobs and finishing. The makita will do the correction work. I may sell my Flex though...anyone interested?

Well I never used one so I cant say yet. Dont get me wrong the flex is a superb machine, it was my first machine and I still love it and the cyclo is just another addition to the fleet. I now exclusivley use a new brand of polishes that was actually designed around the cyclo and the combination of the two is going to work like butter, on any finish you could imagine. So again that was some incentive to buy one.

Re: Got one on the way

I have used the Cyclo in the past, two things were of issue. First it was darn heavy as you moved past mid point on cars. Second, it has no speed settings. The two smaller heads were the best selling point.
