    I go through painfulpleasures.com. I'm in the US. So far they have been great and they always have 10-15% off the wholesale store. Not sure about the cheyenne grip. I use disposables.

    I assume that with the halo, bishop, vivace, etc the needles stay in the skin a fraction longer due to the compression of the stay up spring. Where as a direct drive cycle is always moving.

    This is probably a limited edition brass version. Most will likely be plastic with cool designs and colors.

    My experience stops at the flite. For me it was between it and the thunder, but Cheyenne is too proprietary for my liking. The craziest thing about the flite is its ability to run VERY fast. I run...

    Absolutely Worth the upgrade. The noise and vibration are noticeably improved and the give knob seemed to be tighter and be able to be turned out further making for an even softer hit.

    It's best if you contact Fk and send it to them. You want the tightest fit possible. Since every machined part is a slightly different size. I think they charged me $25 with return shipping.

    The New Spektra Edge...is Here!

    http://vitaltattoomachines.com

    Looks like a hybrid ripoff of the direkt with the edge vise.

    I'd gladly pay 30% more for the real thing.

    And these guys are in the USA. Thats BS!
