Are those two little pizza cutter shaped things on each side of the brush roll housing the only front wheels it has? They don't look like they would be very durable.
The picture of the G-Force seems to have rollers underneath like most plastic uprights but the Cyclon seems to have none!

Yup. No front wheels. That's why the bottom of the vacuum is so scratched to pieces. Cheap bagless vacuums today still do this. The brushroll acts like the wheels and it's a cheat tool to make the vacuum have more suction force by just having it snowplow itself into the carpet.
I have an Aldi Easy Home vac and the vacuum doesn't totally sit on top the carpet because the plastic is so thin and lightweight so I put a small brick on top of the front of the vacuum to get it to stick to the carpet better.
I also have a Eureka Altima missing the front wheel assembly and it works fine like that, but I eventually need to get replacement wheels for it.

The G-Force had a metal bottom plate with height adjustment and front wheels while the Cyclon didn't. I believe around 500 units of the Cyclon were produced. They were made by Zanussi in Italy.
