K-Edge Cycling Solutions brand was born from one simple product, Kristin Armstrong’s Chain Catcher – later to be called K-Edge Chain Catcher. The K-Edge Chain Catcher is a purposeful design that was engineered for a single goal: help Kristin Armstrong win the Gold at the 2008 Olympic Games. While they wouldn’t be so arrogant to suggest the K-Edge was the reason Kristin took gold, it’s a common sense design that provides functional and mental advantages for high performance cyclists. The K-Edge is also perfect for anyone who likes to keep their chain in place, improve shifting performance, and protect their frame from damage caused by a derailed chain. The original one-off K-Edge prototype was used in Kristin’s 2008 Gold Medal Ride. It attracted enough attention from the pro cycling world that the production K-Edge debuted in the ProTour peloton at the 2009 Paris-Roubaix and was used by several teams in the 2009 Tour de France. In addition to having the K-Edge on international and domestic professional teams, they also have world and national championship title rides on the road and cyclocross.
