Expirience with the KTM SCARP MT MASTER

Ludwig Döhl With a little more suspension travel on the fork and tires with better grip, the SCARP MT MASTER is much more suitable for trails than its little brother. The moderate 67 degree head tube angle ensures a balanced handling. Compared with what the market offers, the seating position is neither super sporty, nor uber-comfortable. In the saddle of the KTM Downcountry-Bike, you´ll enjoy a moderate position. With the KTM Fully, the real fun starts at the peak of the mountain. Because in the downhill, the on long tours in light terrain is better than the competitors in this price range.
