This is the fifth generation Edit frame, and it's better than ever. Now with dedicated mixed-wheel geometry and a ground-up redesign.
You get the usual Airdrop build quality and commitment to useability which means external cable routing, CNC guides and standard bearings throughout. It's alloy, with an all-new custom butted tubeset and CNC fitments throughout. The one-piece rocker is machined from a solid billet with a fine surface texture and anodised. The tubing gets our unique matte powder coat treatment which is tougher than wet paint in two options. Raw is a hand-brushed raw allow finish with a clear matte powder coat on top. Sean Grean is a matte powder coat.
The Edit MX has a 205x62.5mm Öhlins TTX22 M.2 Coil shock delivering 161mm travel (a 65mm stroke version offering 167mm is an option, subject to availability). It's undeniably one of the finest rear shocks available today with a huge range of adjustability and the unmistakeable Öhlins build and finish. Match that with a 160mm or 170mm fork. It has a tapered head tube, threaded bottom bracket, 200mm brake mount and a UDH compatible rear end. You can run standard drivetrains with the included mech hanger or the latest SRAM t-type direct-mount. A brushed alloy head badge, CNC seat clamp, axle and our dedicated Silencer chainstay protector completes the package.
