Drawing on KTM's expertise in the world of bicycles, this trekking bike is designed to provide a relaxed, stable, and safe ride, both on paved roads and unpaved roads.

The 28" Alloy 6061 OFFROAD TB aluminum frame ensures a structure suitable for trekking, while the Suntour SF17 NCX-E-AIR RL DS suspension fork with 63 mm travel helps absorb road imperfections, improving comfort and control while riding.

The KTM X-Life Race stands out for its quality technical equipment, starting with the 11-speed Shimano CUES drivetrain, designed to offer smooth and reliable gear changes.

Braking is handled by the Shimano CUES U8000 2-piston disc brakes, paired with Shimano RT64 CL rotors, 180 mm at the front and 160 mm at the rear, for effective speed management.

The Schwalbe Smart Sam Performance 44-622 RT Addix tires, fitted to both the front and rear, offer a balance of rolling efficiency and grip on different surfaces. The 640 mm KTM Team Flat Top handlebars, ergonomic Ergon GP30 grips with bar ends, and the KTM Comp Hybrid saddle complete a setup designed to promote a comfortable and functional riding position.

The tapered steerer tube geometry helps increase the rigidity of the steerer tube, while the integrated cable routing enhances the bicycle's clean design. The front reflector, integrated into the fork crown, improves visibility.

With a weight of 12.6 kg and a maximum permitted total weight of 132 kg, the KTM X-Life Race Green represents an attractive solution for those looking for a versatile trekking bike, carefully selected components, and a ride that allows you to enjoy every outing, from daily mobility to leisure excursions.

A Complete Guide to Bike Sizes

Foreword: Not all bike sizes are the same

Each type of bike has a specific frame and often uses a different size scale. For example, a road bike with a 54cm frame might be considered a medium size by one brand, but a large by another.

Bicycle adjustment margins

Some types of bikes, like gravel bikes, offer a wide range of adjustments, adapting to different body types. Other models, however, have limitations in this regard. This is an important aspect to consider.

How to use size charts

We've created a simple guide to help you find the right bike size:

1. Check out our size charts for each bike type.
2. Learn more with specific tips to help you make the right choice.

Size Charts: Find Your Perfect Bike

Gravel and road bikes

Sizes are based on the length of the top tube (in cm), which determines the reach of the bike.

For gravel, measurements may vary slightly due to different geometries, but remain similar.

Mountain bike

MTBs are measured in inches, based on the seat tube.

Sizes also vary depending on the type of MTB: full-suspension , hardtail or fat bike .

Children's bikes

The size depends on the size of the wheels, often associated with age:

2. Ask an expert : a specialized workshop can help you choose based on your height, ideal reach and goals.
3. Test the bike : If possible, test the model you intend to purchase.
