Re: Flex Edge Adapter - Initial Impressions
currently out of stock at Edge unless you send yours in for conversion. I too hope Aaron will have them soon and maybe toss a couple to his friends at AG for testing.

The Loctite will make it much much harder should you ever want to replace the plate because the gears wear out. I would not recommend this.
Thanks for pointing that out about the Loctite not being needed. I read your coments the day before I was going to use the stuff on the threads and use the Flex adapter for the first time. As you stated, the left hand thread keeps it from coming loose and after using it for the first time on my Flex I think your adapter is a complete success. Edge and Flex is truly a marriage made in heaven. Well worth the wait.

I sure hope they will have one for you soon. If anyone deserves the adapter
it's you. I'm glad I was able to get one when I did. Been keeping my eyes open since they said it would be coming soon, so when I recieved a PM from Edge saying they had a some available I gave them a call. They told me they only had about five available and they were already gone when he told me, believe it or not, he just found one more he could sell me. When I got the PM I figured they had a few hundred or so to sell, not five. Guess a lucky day for me. They seem like real nice people there. At least I got to keep the original backplate for the times I want to use pads other then the Edge ones.

Re: Flex Edge Adapter - Initial Impressions
So then is this finally the answer to the Flex rubbing issue? Hope so; I'll order if it is.

I don't see how it would solve that issue. The actual backing plate itself is not eliminated...
