thanks for the input ..i can get the z2x for the same price as the z2 .the atomic are cheaper but once i add the z2 octo it works out to be 100.00 more than the zeagle withenvoy octo. so like i originally said should i go for the atomic for 100.00 more or being i'm getting 2 for my daughter perhaps 1 of each since i'm torn
One thing to note is that Atomics only need servicing every two years versus the Zeagle every year. The Zeagle will have free parts if you keep it serviced at an authorized dealer but even then in a few years you will have made that $100 back.
End of the day they both work well and you will be happy with the either most likely. I did sell both my Flatheads for Atomics though mainly due to weight and service costs.
