RACE TO NEW HEIGHTS

The KTM 250 XC-W is the ultimate combination of power and rideability and sets a clear benchmark for intuitive handling, unique style, and top performance. Thanks in part to its class-leading WP suspension, this extreme machine continues to reach new heights, clearly demonstrating KTM's unrelenting commitment to 2-stroke development. Developed with feedback from factory riders, the KTM 250 XC-W offers excellent rider feedback, making it a stellar choice for pro and amateur riders alike.

• DECALS: Drawing inspiration from the RED BULL KTM FACTORY RACING TEAM, the 2023 KTM 250 XC-W range features an orange-coated frame and boasts a bold 90s inspired color scheme, using the tried and tested in-mold graphics application for greater friction and fade resistance, meaning your steed will look factory-fresh after even the toughest time spent on the trails.

• FRAME: All KTM XC-W and XCF-W models feature high-tech, lightweight Chromoly steel frames with race-derived geometry, optimal stiffness, and unparalleled feedback for the rider. This translates into a playful handling character, with remarkable stability at speed - not to mention FACTORY RACING style thanks to the striking orange coating. The subframe is made of extra-light and ultra-stable aluminum profiles, weighing less than 900 grams providing rear fender stability and durability in the event of a loop out.
• SWINGARM: The KTM 250 XC-W features a one-piece aluminum swingarm, which is manufactured using a gravity die-cast production process. This results in exeptional strength at the lowest possible weight and the perfect flex behavior.
• WHEELS: KTM uses lightweight, CNC-machined hubs and high-end GIANT rims on all XC-W models. These guarantee maximum stability and the bare minimum weight, while aluminum spoke nipples feature an innovative design, which reduces the need to continuously tighten the spokes.
• TIRES: With help from top riders, the KTM XC-W range makes use of a Dunlop MX33 rubber on the front, and a Dunlop AT81 on the rear, which offers superior grip, slide control, bump absorption, and enhanced durability for exceptional all-around performance.
• SUSPENSION: For 2023, all KTM XC-W models feature top-shelf WP suspension systems, focused on providing all riders of all levels with unmatched performance and consistency across all terrain types.
