KTM MYROON 29er Review

on Tuesday, 15 October 2013. Posted in General News, Bike Reviews

Mountain bike riding is an excellent form of training for dirtbike riding — plus, it’s bucket loads of fun. I knew KTM made mountain bikes, but to be honest I thought they had a couple of bicycle models for the true KTM fan to match with the rest of their orange wardrobe rather than a serious bicycle brand with a complete range.

How wrong I was. KTM has a complete range of mountain bikes and road cycles from entry-level to the very serious bicycle. I was lucky enough to take the full-carbon KTM Myroon 29er over the summer break and racked up some kilometres on it to see how much fun pedalling a KTM can be. The KTM Myroon 29er, as mentioned, has a monocoque carbon frame which makes it as light as a feather. This is not just a gimmick; it doesn’t just feel light when lifting it into the van. On the trail, the bike floats nicely along, ducking and weaving through the trees. Combine the 29-inch wheels and the carbon-fibre frame and you have a bike that handles dirt trails and the odd downhill with ease.
