IME it's not so much that the Cyclo is too big, but rather the way the pads don't overhang the machine's housing very much. When I reach for the PCs (reluctantly) instead of the Cyclos I usually do the problematic contours with a larger pad. It's kinda hard to explain, but it's usually not a matter of tight spots but rather of certain contours.
In tight spots like under sideview mirrors/etc. I also use larger pads- the housing of either machine becomes the problem. Argh...it's frustrating not being able to verbalize this the way I oughta

LexusAussie- Yeah, I prefer the Cyclos over all my other machines too. Unless I have very good reason for using the PCs/rotaries instead, that's what I reach for.
