G'day Jack and all.
Well, the first video said it all - they wanted to modernise the design
- not necessarily improve it. There were too many constraints.
In other words - this is a PR video for non-substantive change.
Yes it's true Jack they wanted to modernize the design, it's later on
the director of Blue Sky Creative says Victa came to them to upgrade their
mowers.
I can't see the Razor as being as bad as some people say, as it received an Australian Design Award in 2004 .
Victa says,the new design features an improved cutting system and a more ergonomic handle. Enhanced handling and a larger cutting diameter reduce the time and effort required by users when mowing. The mower has been designed to improve the efficiency of manufacture and assembly. .
I can definitely see how the Razor improved the efficiency of manufacture and assembly and the handle does look
a more comfortable design..
Cheers
Max.
