KTM Gravelator 25

KTM Gravelator 25 – The Entry Point into the KTM Gravel Bike Series

The Gravelator has long been part of the KTM lineup. However, for the coming season, everything is different. First, the frame has been completely redesigned. Second, the series has been expanded with numerous new models. From now on, every rider can truly find their dream gravel bike at KTM—offering a very attractive price-performance ratio in both carbon and aluminum versions. The updated, modern geometry delivers a perfect mix of sporty and comfortable handling. The aluminum models, thanks to a higher head tube, offer a slightly more upright riding position. The standard equipment includes everything a gravel bike needs: durable components, wheels with off-road-ready tires, and multiple mounting points for bikepacking accessories. For everyday riders, commuters, and touring cyclists, the Gravelator is also available from the factory equipped with lights, fenders, and a rear rack.

In the 25 version, the Gravelator already comes at an entry-level price with a high-quality aluminum frame and a lightweight carbon fork. The Shimano Cues drivetrain provides 11 gears combined with a single chainring at the crank. The hydraulic disc brakes also come from Shimano, the industry leader known for reliable components. The robust wheels, paired with 45 mm wide tires, roll comfortably over any gravel or forest path. The Maxxis name on the puncture-resistant casing stands for high quality as well.

Top-quality carbon or aluminum frames

In the price range up to around €1600, the heart of the Gravelator is a first-class 6061 aluminum frame. The bikes in this category are designated by numbers; the smaller the number, the higher the quality of the model. The Pro series, starting at around €1700, marks the entry point into the carbon class. The model series continues upwards with the type designations Elite, Master, Prime, and Exonic. Gravel bikes with carbon frames offer a particularly high level of riding comfort thanks to their vibration-absorbing properties. The name KTM is also synonymous with excellent workmanship when it comes to carbon frames. Incidentally, the fork on all Gravelator bikes is made of carbon, even on the aluminum frames in the entry-level class! This is by no means a given. In addition, the rear triangle is always equipped with a virtually indestructible UDH derailleur hanger.
