KTM X-Strada 20

KTM X-Strada 20 - One of the best gravelers in its class

Austrian premium manufacturer KTM is an expert when it comes to off-road two-wheelers. So it was only logical that the cross specialists expanded their range a few years ago to include a new, special gravel bike line. After all, gravel biking is far more than just a trend. In principle, the gravel bike is actually the most versatile type of bike. You can ride it on almost any road, from asphalt to gravel. Even forest paths and trails are rideable, whether sporty or more enjoyable. At the start KTM is with two model series, one with aluminum frame and one with carbon frame. The aluminum models come from the X-Strada 20 with a lightweight carbon fork. In both series you will find different equipment options for every budget.

The X-Strada 20 is available in two versions: Here with sporty racing and Gravellenker. And alternatively with straight handlebars as X-Strada 20 FIT, also available in the Rabe webstore. The race version comes as a flawless gravel bike, which does not need to shy away from comparison with other brands. KTM has given the X-Strada 20 indestructible Shimano GRX Gravel components, from the 2 x 10 gears to the hydraulic disc brakes. Shimano parts are still unmatched in terms of performance and ease of service. The equipment is completed with KTM Parts, which are also characterized by smooth operation.

Sporty, comfortable frame with sensible mounting points for accessories

When developing the frame, the focus was on high all-round suitability.   The geometry is a healthy mix of sporty and comfortable, so that from daily use in urban areas to fitness training and multi-day gravel adventures, everything is possible with the X-Strada. The versatility is also evident in some details: the rear triangle and fork blades are wide enough to accommodate tires up to 48 millimeters wide. Threaded eyelets in the appropriate positions allow the mounting of accessories such as water bottles, mudguards, lighting system and luggage rack. In addition, a LowRider luggage rack can be screwed onto the fork.
