EDGE MK III
// Carbon at the limit
The EDGE Mk III was developed in 2009/10. The development work concentrated on a further weight reduction, which could ultimately be achieved with a weight saving of 20kg. The further development progressed and brought us further weight advantages compared to the previous year. Finally, rims and other components could also be made of carbon, so that the EDGE Mk III 2011 with a fighting weight of 175kg was one of the lightest at the events and we were able to celebrate further successes with it.
We have been competing with a new vehicle every year since 2008, which we are constantly improving and developing.
