SunTour Group I.D.

Anyone know where the late Eighties Edge group falls in the SunTour hierarchy? I have it on an old Schwinn Prelude. It works well except for the awfull single pivot Dia Compe brakes.

Fairly low, second or third from bottom perhaps? It worked pretty well though.

I agree, it does work well. The painted finsih is a little on the cheesy side.

I think Blaze was the lowest full group with Edge next.

Edge appeared to be a middle of the road der, which means it was a very good component.
