SUPERIOR CHASSIS

GRAPHICS

New, classy graphics with clear lines visually underscore the exacting standards of what KTM deems a true, cutting-edge offroad bike.

FRAME

The XC-W’s chassis is second to none and for 2015 the bikes will feature the striking Factory orange usually seen only on KTM’s race team machines. The modern and lightweight frame design with exceptional quality and performance created with by WP Performance Systems is made of lightweight, high strength chromoly steel sections. Not only does it provide easy handling and precise cornering, but also outstanding stability.

HANDLEBAR

All XC-W models are fitted with the super strong, tapered Neken handlebar made of high tensile strength aluminum alloy. The proven standard KTM mount allows to fix the handlebar in four different positions. 2015 sees the introduction of hand guards made of a new 2-component polymer for more durability and effective hand protection.

WHEELS

The XC-W’s feature new high-quality black anodized Giant rims with black spokes, that are mated to CNC-machined hubs and lightweight silver aluminum nipples for maximum stability at minimum weight. The XC-W’s feature new Dunlop GEOMAX AT81 tires.

SPEEDOMETER

A new MAE speedometer has been included on the MY 2015’s with a clean, minimalistic and integrated design. This includes the warning and indicator lights in a tidy, single unit with clear and more readily available information.

SUPERIOR SUSPENSION SETTINGS

The XC-W models feature WP suspension, which is specifically designed for Enduro racing and ensures maximum traction comprised with plenty of comfort. As expected, the compression and rebound damping can be adjusted to suit racing conditions and rider preference as well as separate high and low speed shock compression adjustments.

GRIPS

New, softer two-compound grips are used on MY 2015 XC-W models for increased comfort and less stress on the rider’s hands.

BODYWORK

The KTM designer's focus was to achieve complete ergonomic harmony between rider and bike for a more stable ride and effortless movement on the bike. Adding to the improvements is a high-quality seat foam core to maximize comfort and durability. With the new front fender, the designers omitted ribbing on the inside to reduce mud and dirt buildup while increasing rigidity over the previous component by 50%.
