Expirience with the KTM Scarp MT

Ludwig Döhl With its 140 mm travel on the fork, the Scarp MT is significantly more downhill-oriented than the other Scarp models in the KTM catalog. If you ride super fast on tricky singletrails, you will love the calm handling of the Scarp MT. When it comes to the seating position, KTM chooses the middle ground between sporty and comfortable. There are All Mountain in the price under 4500 Euro that have more potential downhill. An important point at the end: The sporty orientation makes the Scarp MT a real mountain goat in the All Mountains.
