    FLEX XFE 5" plate option?

    I have been using the XFE on and off for a while now and have been patiently waiting for a 5" plate option to be released. While the large 6" plate works fine with the larger 6.5" pads on large flat areas, the same setup used for smaller cars with many curves can give the machine/user a real workout trying to keep the pad rotating.

    Maybe something will be released at the Automechanika Frankfurt or SEMA from either FLEX or one of the supporting manufactures that makes pads....


    Anyone else needing/wanting a 5" plate for the XFE?
