In which domain ? Not that of suspensions, on which KTM is focused. But in the battery... And we're not talking about MotoE !

Kalex announces that it has adopted a tailor-made battery thanks to a new partner. The German chassis manufacturer has developed a new battery for Moto2 machines with “Full Spectrum Power”. “ We look forward to building a long-term partnership ", announced Alex Baumgärtel, the boss of the brand.

Kalex has teamed up with the Alexandria, Virginia-based lithium battery manufacturer to develop a battery designed for the 2 Moto2019 season. A campaign that got off to a promising start in Doha. During the inaugural race, only the Kalex drivers found themselves in the top 10…

Kalex Engineering attaches great importance to the constant improvement of racing machines, year after year. Saving weight and space is always a fundamental requirement, as the chassis manufacturer from Bobingen, Bavaria, emphasizes. With this lightweight and compact product from America, further progress has been made in this direction. The new battery has already been delivered to the teams with all 2019 chassis.

« We are pleased to announce the new partnership with Full Spectrum Power“, announced on speedweek  Alex Baumgärtel, CEO and chief designer of Kalex. “ After an intense period of development and numerous successful tests, we are now ready to use a tailor-made battery for the 2019 specification of our Moto2. We especially thank Jason Lewitt and his engineers for their enthusiasm for this project. Thanks to their passion for motorcycle racing, we have now managed to develop this custom piece. We look forward to a lasting partnership with a constantly evolving development process. "
