Manufacturing
| Manufacturer | Pankl Racing Systems |
|---|---|
| Origin | 🇦🇹 Austria Manufactured here Crankdrive manufacturing at Bruck an der Mur. |
| Process | Forged |
| Additively manufactured | No |
| Material | Ti-6Al-4V (Grade 5) |
| Notes | Titanium rods cut reciprocating mass, which lowers the inertial loads the crank and bearings see at high rpm. That is a different benefit from simply making the engine lighter, and it is why the material persists here despite the cost. |
