KTM makes bikes?

Did anyone else know that KTM makes bicycles? Anyone have any experiences? Are they any good? That colorscheme is delicious though.

Never ridden one, but it kind of reminds me of seeing Yamaha logos on guitars...

Color scheme is KTM/10

All I've ever ridden is their dirt bikes so can't really comment otherwise.

I've heard they aren't much better than something like a planet x, so I'd avoid unless you get a crazy price.

Doesn't mean a Yamaha sounds as good as an Ovation or Martin. My dad had a Clavinova piano that was excellent however

>KTM makes bicycles
No they don't. Those are just branded third party bikes to popularize their motorcycle business. Basically overpriced generics.

If you want a bicycle, buy from dedicated bicycle brand. If you want it to complement the colors of your MX bike in garage, get a KTM one.

I just read an article from BIKE magazine: KTM has been making mountain bikes since 1964. No clue about road bikes though.

You are wrong and have no idea.

KTM bikes are considered solid and reliable rides. Their offer mid-range to top-range bikes.

You're missing the point. Yamaha has more heritage in music than it does in motorcycles, despite what high schoolers on R1s think.

OK, great.

Just saying what it reminded me of - my anecdote with a sub-average Yamaha acoustic I played growing up

still doesn't negate the fact that they are overprice generic frames that have been bought up by KTM and branded
