Handlebars: ergonomic grip ends, Nyon display


The KTM trekking bike has a lot to offer. It starts with the powerful Bosch Performance CX drive with a 500 Wh battery, which pushes hard at every cadence and is combined here with the innovative Nyon on-board computer. Its large, bright display is not only extremely easy to read, but also offers interesting additional functions; it shows an altitude profile of the route driven. Various functions can be retrofitted via app. Another highlight of the KTM is the 11-speed derailleur, which can be shifted under load and works very smoothly. The disc brakes are easy to control and have strong deceleration; Grip croissants on the handlebars improve ergonomics. The only thing missing on a long tour is a little spring comfort under the saddle.

One of the successful details on the KTM is this engine protection

Good spring support for maybe a little more comfort is missing
