Fair play.... each to their own. No questions that CYC will have tested them well and i raised this directly with them.

I was discussing with the CYC guys on the Pro forum last night how the testing went and issues to look out for.

 

My main concern is having been in China and worked with these manufacturers.....

i know how pear shaped the mass production runs can go - so i will monitor feedback.

 

As with all good detailing professionals - the key is not to put all your eggs in one basket.

Ask around and more Pro's have at least 3 machines ready to go for a full correction detail.  :thumbup:

This does not appear to be going anywhere productive............... Polite suggestion (to all) - might be worth dropping it and moving on It's a good thread and I am leaning to taking one of these o

Looks good & nice to see they put a decent length of cable on it. Can you get a 5" backing plate? I see it comes with a 6" plate, meaning you need pads which are more than 6"

Spoke with Tim.... 5" backing plates due in approximately 14 days...... ie. on the way from China!!!!  :D   :thumbup:

I am up in Yorkshire over the summer doing a few of the Yorkshire CC lads cars so we can combine it with that! Probably wont be in the 86 though as i cant fit all my detaling gear in there!

Finally got to inspect one of these 21E units close up today - they feel pretty well screwed together it has to be said.

Next to a Rupes LHR unit - it really does stand up quite well..... just hope for the same reliability in operation follows on.

 

The packaging seemed a bit less robust than what my G220 came in; so there be be some courier damaged units arriving... hopefully not.

 

Seems a good weight - pretty comparable with my G220.

 

Nice to see the backing plate mounting method and clearance has been addressed ie. no washer/spacer required on these.

 

 

So looks like i'll get one ordered when further backing plate options are in stock; just the new Milltek stainless steel exhaust system to pay for first and holiday thereafter.  :giggle:

What sort of price you after?

 

Lots of guys looking for DA deals - but few in the market for a rotary tbh.

I'll happily pitch your name in on the other forums should anyone ask.

I would have bought one of these but I don't want 2 DA 's and I can't imagine it's Easy to sell used. Although mine is as new only been used under 10 times ;)

So have you bought the DAS 21E and the Rupes?

Did you get a free cap Chris? That's cool :)

Thanks for that link mate! Interesting deal...

 

Maxolen - they are based in Leeds as i recall.

 

Might be worth popping in to see what direct price can be had on this.

No eBay fees, package deal and collection too.... win win!  :thumbup:
